Hi, I recently got a speeding ticket and the year is wrong on it both times. (Says the ticket was on April 18, 2020 when it should be 2022, court date for June 2020). Will that make any difference?

The ticket my daughter received in Sparks, GA (Cook County) on I-75 has no ticket number on it. The ticket was torn out of the officer’s book and the corner with the ticket number on it is missing. Is this grounds for a dismissal?
The entire top of the ticket is missing information, court case #, NCIC #, and ticket #. It is a super speeder in henry county and I heard they don’t reduce. And I don’t include my suffix of Jr on the ticket. I have a CDL, should I plead no-lo?
I received a ticket on May 7 this year I was going 95 in a 55. They took my license I signed for the ticket I got down the road and saw the ticket was made out to the person that the car is registered to! Not sure what to do with this point am I able to get out of this

Hello. I was issued a citation for driving while suspended license and my court date is listed 1/13/2022. It’s 7/28/22 when the offense happened.
I was cited for not stopping at a stop sign but the code he wrote is about traffic lights, not stop signs (40-6-21 vs. 40-6-72). Grounds for dismissal?

I recently got a reckless driving ticket with the wrong road on it… I was never on that road. Is this enough to get it reduced or dismissed?
A friend of mine just got a citation for 95mph in a 55mph zone. She was on I-59 with a posted maximum limit of 70mph. Is this discrepancy sufficient enough for dismissal? Or at least helpful for reducing the ticket and/or avoiding the Superspeeder penalty.
