Sat, 21 Nov 2009 12:28:06 PST http://www.avvo.com/legal-answers/two-court-supervisions-in-illinois---now-a-ticket--166501.html My husband has had two court supervisions for speeding within the last 12 months (dates are 12-26-08 and 1-8-09) in the our resident state of Illinois. Last week we were travelling in Iowa and he got a ticket for failing to completely stop at a stop sign (11-15-09). I have several questions: a) How will this affect these two court supervisions (will they turn into tickets themselves?) b) Would he even be able to get a court supervision in Iowa? c) If he decides to plead guilty and take the ticket in Iowa...what happens if he gets another ticket within the next 12 months? Can he go for another court supervision if it has been a year since he asked for his last court supervision or will the Iowa ticket require him to go a year from the Iowa ticket's date?
