Ticket for having an air gun

Ask a Lawyer

Question

Country: United States of America
State: CaliforniaMy friend received a ticket for having an air gun in a park. It was in the city of El Cajon in San Diego county. I was wondering if it is worth contesting in court. Will the court increase his fine if we contest rather than just pay the fine and plead guilty?

Answer

If you contest it you will need some kind of grounds or reason why he should not be found to have violated the law.but if you have grounds contesting it will often reduce the punishment or even cause it to be dismissed.
