So i had called them, and they said it was ok. Well, i drove my car for about two months, got pulled over and got a $700 ticket for diving with suspended tag.

Well, it's a big misunderstanding because at first, i cancel my insurance at premier insurance in August, and got new insurance in septemeber. And they had sent me the notification in september and i thought it was my current insurance. Does it make sense? if not, i can add more details.

What i'm asking is, if i fight for it in court, is there a chance i might win. Cause how can i get insurance with my tag being suspended.
The only misunderstand, as I see it, is on you, man. When you canceled the insurance on your car in August and you did NOT go to the tag office to cancel the registration, you were assessed a tag penalty of $25. After 60 days (I believe it is) has passed without you going up there to pay the $25 fee, there was another $65 fee tacked on for a total of $85 for failing to keep your car insured. Now since you never paid the tag fees, your tag stayed suspended. Even when you got insurance, you still had a suspended tag. It was still on you to go to the tag office and pay the $85 fee to reinstate your tag. The reason why your insurance agency was saying it was ok is because they were telling you that your insurance was ok. Not your tag situation.

Anytime you cancel insurance on a car, FOR WHATEVER REASON and for HOWEVER LONG, you have to go to the tag office and cancel the registration.

Hope this helps. I don't see you having a case at all. Later, QD.
