The Adventure Continues

So many good things about living in Detroit. The pleasure of dealing with the 36th District Court has to top the list.

About six weeks ago I had a court date and was found "not responsible". That officially means that my officer didn't have all of the paperwork and that he could not rewrite or reissue the ticket. It probably also means I got off because I was nice to the cop, had no record and he just pulled me over because he was under his quota the month before. Case closed, right?

Not in the D.

Today in the mail I got a postcard saying "notice of failing to comply with judgement".

My first thought: But my judgement was not respsonsible. Am I not going to comply with that?

My second thought: Actually I had no second thought, I just started laughing out loud. That sums it all up.

And how excited am I that I get to spend my life next week trying to reach a human being at the 36th? I am beyond words right now - but only because I'm still laughing.
