Asked 12 months ago - Chicago, IL
FlagI was given a ticket for stepping in to a crime scene to take measurements. Police officer was extremely nasty about the situation and I apologized for my wrong doing. 20 minutes later my employer asked to get the police officer's name and then the police officer said that if my employer wanted his name, then he is going to give me a ticket. Also the info on the ticket states that employee were instructed to clean the area but I was not cleaning the area only trying to take measurements. Is their a possibility to have the ticket dismissed?
You have an odd fact situation and it seems there is more to the story that we know. If you were there at the direction of your employer, perhaps your employer should pay for your attorney. You really should have a lawyer. Your attorney will be able to gather all he relevant facts and get you the best outcome.
Your question is too vague to be properly answered. What exactly are you charged with? www.galivanlaw.net
