[QUOTE="oldguy, post: 723581, member: 16965"] My suggestion is to make your first "appearance" by letter. Try to find out in advance who in the prosecutors office is assigned the file and make sure the letter is addressed to that person. Detail your concerns in a well thought out letter detailing (with copies of any documentation you have) all the efforts you made to locate the legal riding area. At this point be honest (actually all the way thru do this) but don't admit guilt. Request that either the prosecutor contact you or ask how to contact them by phone to discuss the matter. Ultimately if you are not guilty let them know you firmly believe this and wish to pursue your right to a trial but do not word it as a threat "I'll see [b]you[/b] in court!!!". They make their living in court and it just doesn't scare them. You may need to contact a local attorney to act in your behalf but once you hire an attourney the prosecutor may no longer talk to you about the case without your attourney (ethics rules) Do not send pictures of your bikes because at trial the witness would have access to them prior to testifying to memorize a description. Instead if it goes to trial have pictures of the bike [b]He identified[/b] taken without any changes from the time of the incident. I am confused how a ticket for riding offroad can cost you points on your Drivers licence as in Wis that wouldn't happen unless you were on a road at the time of the violation. In the end maintain calm, honest attitudes. Good luck [/QUOTE]
