Got a ticket for fishing here with no license. But i had no fishing rod cast into water nor did I have any fish. Realized later, I'm pretty sure I got scammed. Is what it is though. For others, get photos and confirmation first.

Was here recently with my daughter for a few tickets. Was able to get most thrown out and the one ticket reduced. I think the judge and prosecutor were both very fair because they didn’t have to do anything. We were both very thankful. Also everyone we encountered was very friendly. Had no problems whatsoever.

Interesting experience. I never been inside a court room before. Only watch courts shows on television. Surprisingly, the courts was not crowded at day which was a blessing. Our case was dismissed, Thank you Judge. The two hours drive to and from court, during severe thunderstorms, was our only challenge. Staff was extremely friendly and helpful.

Judge Grizzel will use your first amendment against you taking pictures from a public sidewalk and he says I’m harassing the lawyer that made threats of bodily harm and gets away with it

Everyone is very rude, also trying to make things worse than they already are, they also charge you for paying your fine. Which makes absolutely no sense
