Did you get caught with an invalid ticket? Or an expired ticket? Or did you simply get caught not paying for a ticket at all?
The city and county of St Louis has been cracking down on these types of violation on the MetroLink. Hundreds of people are charged with this infraction every month.
Pleading Guilty Is Not Your Best OptionBut unfortunately, most people do not hire an attorney to help them out. They believe that such a ticket is “no big deal”. But nothing could be further from the truth!! A St Louis MetroLink violation is actually a misdemeanor!
This means that simply paying the fine on such a ticket is the same thing as pleading guilty to a misdemeanor. A good analogy would be a common traffic ticket – when you pay the fine, you are pleading guilty to the charge of speeding (which will allow the state to put points on your driving record).
But it doesn’t have to turn out this way! There is a much better route you can take!! We can get the ticket violation “fixed” (just like a traffic ticket). This will in turn ensure that you won’t have to plead guilty (and have a conviction on your permanent record). So give us a call right away to discuss!!
