I received a letter in the mail claiming that I was speeding. One of those speed cameras.

They want me to send them $110.00 to them. They say I have to do that in order to go to receive a trial. I called this Lieutenant Carol Johnson. She said she would waive part of the money and that I needed to pay them $85.00 to receive a court hearing. She called this bond.

This isn't right you all know that.

Her phone number at Dayton Police headquarters is 937-333-1084.

How do you fine folks suggest fighting this.

he Mansfield News Journal reports that seven attorneys with clients challenging $100 speeding citations have combined their cases into a single lawsuit. The more than 60 plaintiffs include nearby residents, out-of-state drivers and three businesses.

The lawsuit charges that camera speeding ticket enforcement is unconstitutional because of lack of due process; that the village didn't follow state public notice requirements, and that rules governing Ohio mayor's courts weren't followed. Some drivers claim they were ticketed when they weren't even speeding since the cameras went into operation in March.

"There is no indication as to how these cameras are kept up or how they are calibrated," said attorney Cassandra Mayer, who added that the system makes it difficult to appeal the citations.

The village has denied any wrongdoing and said those suing don't have legal standing.

Mayer said the Lucas lawsuit is similar to one against the Cincinnati-area village of Elmwood Place that led to a judge's order against camera use there this year.

Hamilton County Common Pleas Judge Robert Ruehlman ruled in March that Elmwood Place's camera ordinance was unconstitutional and unenforceable, and blasted speeding camera enforcement as "a scam" that was stacked against the motorists. A similar lawsuit was filed against the village of New Miami near Hamilton in southwest Ohio.

Other Ohio courts, including the state Supreme Court, have upheld use of the cameras.

Supporters of traffic cameras say they are tools for stretching law enforcement resources to make communities safer.

Do you have any idea where to get a copy of these lawsuits. So I can cut and paste.?

I would try calling the office of attorney Michael K. Allen. His office has litigated the specific issue and won. I have no knowledge of Michael K. Allen other than what I have read in looking at this speed camera issue.

You appear to describe the same process (or lack of due process) which has been held unlawful. FWIW, my opinion is that Judge Ruehlman has it correctly decided.

You're the best. Thanks a million.

I will read over this more carefully.

One thing though. Why do you think this police officer "LT Carol Johnson" is allowed to waive "fees". I didn't know that the police were part of the judical branch. If I get pulled over by a regular cop. Do you think his supervisor or the officer themselves can amend requirements having to do with "duties" to the "court".

Title [19] XIX COURTS - MUNICIPAL - MAYOR'S - COUNTY
Chapter 1901: MUNICIPAL COURT

1901.20 Criminal and traffic jurisdiction.

(A)

(1) The municipal court has jurisdiction of the violation of any ordinance of any municipal corporation within its territory, unless the violation is required to be handled by a parking violations bureau or joint parking violations bureau pursuant to Chapter 4521. of the Revised Code, and of the violation of any misdemeanor committed within the limits of its territory. The municipal court has jurisdiction of the violation of a vehicle parking or standing resolution or regulation if a local authority, as defined in division (D) of section 4521.01 of the Revised Code, has specified that it is not to be considered a criminal offense, if the violation is committed within the limits of the court's territory, and if the violation is not required to be handled by a parking violations bureau or joint parking violations bureau pursuant to Chapter 4521. of the Revised Code. The municipal court, if it has a housing or environmental division, has jurisdiction of any criminal action over which the housing or environmental division is given jurisdiction by section 1901.181 of the Revised Code, provided that, except as specified in division (B) of that section, no judge of the court other than the judge of the division shall hear or determine any action over which the division has jurisdiction.

(2) A judge of a municipal court does not have the authority to dismiss a criminal complaint, charge, information, or indictment solely at the request of the complaining witness and over the objection of the prosecuting attorney, village solicitor, city director of law, or other chief legal officer who is responsible for the prosecution of the case.

(B) The municipal court has jurisdiction to hear felony cases committed within its territory. In all felony cases, the court may conduct preliminary hearings and other necessary hearings prior to the indictment of the defendant or prior to the court's finding that there is probable and reasonable cause to hold or recognize the defendant to appear before a court of common pleas and may discharge, recognize, or commit the defendant.

(C) A municipal court has jurisdiction of an appeal from a judgment or default judgment entered pursuant to Chapter 4521. of the Revised Code, as authorized by division (D) of section 4521.08 of the Revised Code. The appeal shall be placed on the regular docket of the court and shall be determined by a judge of the court.
