How to subpoena police dash-cam footage
    #22295632 - 09/26/15 08:07 PM (8 years, 4 months ago)

I recently got a massive ticket from a california highway patrol officer even though I wasn't on the highway. Does anyone have experience or know the basics of how to subpoena the car's camera footage if there is footage? I would like to view any camera footage which may show that I am innocent of the charges. Also does anyone know if this could work against me. I assume that if it shows anything conclusive or even beneficial for the case against me it will be used, but do you know if I am wrong and by subpoenaing the footage I could be doing myself harm?

Tell them you want a trial and they have to give you the video on discovery if it exists

So if I show up to court before I have to and just ask for a trial they will mail it to me or something? Does anyone else know about this?

and once the trial date is set keep changing the court date , eventually it will cost more for the cop to show up then it's worth , and the Cass is dismissed.. this is what I do with all my tickets and I never had to pay a dime :justcantwait:

I don't think they'd mail it to you. I think you'd have to go to the police station and pick it up.

There's a lot of evidence you're legally entitled to if you choose to take it to trial.

http://criminal.lawyers.com/criminal-law-basics/criminal-law-right-to-evidence-disclosure.html

Judging by that page, they would have to provide the dash cam footage if there is any or they plan to use it against you.

Though I can see how this could not work out favorably for you. They could choose to not use the footage in your trial, and then you're in no better of a position than you are now, since you can't use the footage to prove your innocence or the officer's wrong doing.

I'm no lawyer though.

I’m in no shape to be alone contrary to the shit that you might hear.

Thanks for the advice and info both of you. My ticket is a huge ticket.. a couple thousand dollars, so I hope they don't put extra effort into showing up.

I was not aware there is a trial date and a court date, I know I can research it but if you don't mind a short summary of what you have to do would be much appreciated especially since it sounds like you have done it a few times.

I am going to be broke if I have to pay that, even half of it would be a ton of money.

:shrug: I've never done it (trial and evidence discovery) and I really wouldn't know what the process would be like. I just know anytime you need to obtain witness statements and shit like that, you have to go to the station to get them. Can always ask Enlil what the process would be, I'm sure he knows by now.
