If a judge issues a non process order on a traffic violation, can the mayor and police chief process anyway?
Asked on Sep 16th, 2011 on Criminal Law - Arkansas
More details to this question:
A judge issued an order to non process a minor traffic violation in city court in a small town. The police chief and mayor issue a warrant and suspend the driver's license of the defendant. Do they have the authority to do that?
If a court dismissed a violation the police cannot then act on their own. I'd have an attorney not from that area look at the situation and then follow that attorney's advice.
