Need a lawyer for the 2nd of may

You stay in GA, you got a ticket in AL, I believe it won't go on your record.

I'm happy that you are not my lawyer...

Ever heard of the Nonresident Violator Compact of 1977? How about the Driver's License Compact (DLC)? It basically means that states should (and typically will) report traffic offenses to the DMV of your home state. Most states share a reciprocity with other states. Now, there are underlying rules as to what the limits are before info is reported, but you get the idea.

GA is not part of the compact, but I believe that AL is. With that said, Alabama should report to GA while GA wouldn't report back to AL (if that makes sense).

To answer the question: yes, there is a chance that it will show up.

No problem. It helps that my father was a judge for 20 years and is currently a lawyer. You pick up on a lot of things in that time...

Heh, yeah, those sorts of things...

What's funny is that my brother is an attorney now, but he specializes in worker's comp and personal injury. I actually know more than him (in basic terms of courtroom law) as most of this type of thing is learned "on the job" so to speak. I grew up in my father's courtroom, so you learn quickly over that time. It's like asking an IT person who specializes in programming to fix your computer or do networking. All are IT based, but the speciality limits your knowledge of other IT subjects.
