An experienced traffic violation, municipal court and DUI lawyer can help take the guesswork out of municipal court and traffic violation matters.
You want to avoid gaving points on your license, losing your license, or paying higher insurance premiums. Appearing in traffic court and negotiating with a prosecutor yourself is many times ill-advised as prosecutors may offer you a plea deal that slightly reduces the points assessed against you, but still results in a large fine. Oftentimes, individuals can save money and obtain a more favorable outcome in traffic court matters by retaining a lawyer to represent their interests and place them on equal footing in the courtroom. If you find yourself accused of drunk driving, it is a serious matter. Getting a DUI can damage your reputation on your driving record, along with increased fees on insurance and additional fees.
The Reinartz Law Firm is experienced in traffic court and municipal court matters, and offers clients representation in a variety of matters involving motor vehicle violations and traffic tickets, violations of municipal ordinances, disorderly persons offenses, petty disorderly persons offenses, and other non-indictable offenses.

Fed. appeals court denies ex-Ill. governor appeal
A federal appellate court in Chicago has denied an appeal filed by imprisoned former Illinois Gov. George Ryan.
The 7th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals released a 16-page ruling on Monday denying the 78-year-old Republican's appeal.
A ruling in his favor could have led to Ryan's release from an Indiana prison. It was widely seen as his last chance to get out of prison early.
Ryan is nearing the end of a 6 1/2-year sentence. He's due to be released in mid-2013.
The U.S. Supreme Court in April ordered the appeals court to revisit Ryan's arguments to overturn his conviction.
Last year, the lower court rejected arguments that the 2006 convictions should be tossed because prosecutors never proved Ryan took a bribe.

Miss Universe pageant fights back on rigging claim
The Miss Universe Organization says a former contestant should be made to pay for her "defamatory" claims that this year's Miss USA pageant was a sham.
The New York-based organization made a filing with a dispute resolution company over the former Miss Pennsylvania USA's assertion that another contestant spotted the list of finalists on a planning sheet hours before the event was even held Sunday, its lawyer Scott Balber said Friday.
A statement from the organization said it was seeking compensation for her "ongoing defamatory statements," but Balber wouldn't say how much money the Miss Universe Organization was seeking.
The pageant also released a statement from Miss Florida USA — the contestant Sheena Monnin claims saw the list — in which she disputes Miss Pennsylvania's version of the events that prompted her to step down.
Monnin gave up her crown Monday, claiming in a Facebook post that the pageant had been rigged, with the top five finishers selected before the show was broadcast Sunday night from Las Vegas. Pageant organizers immediately denied Monnin's allegation and claimed she had actually stepped down because she disagreed with the pageant's decision to allow transgender contestants.

Supreme Court ratings down in Pew poll
A new survey finds the Supreme Court's popularity is at a 25-year low, though still much higher than that of Congress.
The Pew Research Center says 52 percent of Americans have a favorable opinion of the court, the lowest rating since the group started asking Americans their view of the high court in 1987.
Even at 52 percent, the court ranks well ahead of Congress. In a January poll, just 23 percent of Americans said they view Congress favorably.
The court's highest rating was in July 1994, when 80 percent of Americans reported holding a favorable view of it.
The poll on the court was conducted April 4-15 among a random national sample of 1,514 adults and has a margin of sampling error of plus or minus 2.9 percentage points.

Australia court finds Google hosted misleading ads
An Australian court on Tuesday found Google Inc. guilty of breaching trade law by hosting misleading or deceptive advertisements in a ruling that holds search engines responsible for their advertisers' content.
Three Federal Court judges unanimously overturned a lower court's ruling from September last year that Google was not responsible for advertisers' breaches of Australia's Trade Practices Act.
The appeal court ruled that Google had engaged in misleading or deceptive conduct with four ads that appeared on its Google Australia website. The advertisers used the names of competitors as keywords to trigger their own ads appearing.
The court ruled this was likely to mislead people searching for information about those competitors. Google's "AdWords" system posts small text-only advertisements next to search results based on search keywords selected by the advertisers.
The section of the law that Google breached does not impose a fine. But the court ordered Google to make changes to prevent future breaches and to pay court costs to the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission, which appealed the September ruling.
Google said it was disappointed by the decision and is considering its options, which include a High Court appeal.
