Haha you ladies have so much humor :D

Hey Judy have you gone to court yet?

I was wandering about that too Lynne!!

I'd like to know that too, Judy!!!

I postponed it because my court date was on Jessie's birthday. My new date is March 9, which is my birthday! But, I am going, with all of my proof and so on.

The judge called me at home. I was out and she left the nicest message. I don't think they have had a real crime over there in years!

I am going to play it by ear. I have a copy of the law against carrying medication in a non prescription bottle, which I may show her depending on how it goes. It states that you can't do this unless they are used by a person or pet (?????) I think it is purposly vague. If it's just a fine, and leaves me without a criminal record, I will smile and pay it and go on my merry way!

I'm sure that things will go well. It's a lot different being in court in a small town compared to a large city. I will advise you to NOT call the judge a "moron" or any other name. Small towns will use just about anything to add to their cash flow!!!

Court date is almost around the corner. Wishing you luck!!

I'm sure everything will be fine Judy. Good luck sweetie!:)

My son went to New York a couple of weeks ago for fashion week I would not let him take any of his vitamins just in case :)

I promise!!!:angel:

How are you? Good to see you on here!

Phew!!! Done with this at last!

The charge was dismissed, the headlight ticket was dismissed, and the judge, who was a funny, very nice woman, the ADA, and the court officer all laughed at the other charge (carrying meds in a non-prescription bottle). She was very honest and said they gave that one to me because they need money, so she gave me a $20 fine because if she didn't fine me at all, they would get on her! The fine can go up to $50. I have no record, which is really what I cared about.

The judge is originally a cop from Bed Stuy (a VERY rough Brooklyn neighborhood), so we compared war stories from my teaching and her policing experiences. She also peppered her stories saying the f word more times than in the movie Goodfella!

All in all, I have to say that it was a fun time, I met some nice people, and I left, with it all behind me, and with birthday wishes from everyone in the court!

Just goes to show you...anything can be fun!

Oh Judy I'm so glad to hear everything went well.

Happy Birthday!!!!

Glad it's finally over Judy! I'm happy to hear that you had a "fun time" in court too lol!

LOL, you couldn't have gotten a better birthday present!!!! So glad this is behind you now.
