My speeding ticket was dismissed? I want to know why..?

Question

I paid a lawyer to represent me in court for my infraction (61MPH in a 45MPH Zone), I received the paperwork by mail and as I read along; it states my ticket was dismissed, and on the disposition it says "DISMISSED WRONG STAT". What does that mean?

Don't get me wrong, I'm static at the fact it was dismissed. I would just like to know the reason for dismissal :)

Thank you.

Answer 1

STAT is probably an abbreviation for "statute".

Apparently, the officer wrote the wrong statute down, and your attorney caught it.

Answer 2

INNOCENT BY REASON OF CUTENESS

Answer 3

pobably the officer writing the ticket cited the incorrect statute when writing the ticket. so there fore it cant be held against you as he cited the wrong reason.

Answer 4

lol nice, yeah probably the cop f-ed up!  

Answer 5

I hope you are ecstatic and NOT static about your ticket being dismissed.
