Yup. Court records will always show the original charge. So, to go in and say "hey, I was on a bike..." would only be met with "so ya wanna pay the original fine, then...".

This is far from over. I was hoping for an out-and-out dismissal, but this is even better. I'll be writing my Governor, both Representatives, and my Senator with this story. I'm still thinking about contacting some of these local news "investigative report" kinds of folks. We'll see what kind of response I get from my elected officials first. Depending upon how they respond, it may make for a better story yet.
