You "heard" incorrect.

No.

So you heard correctly, but what you were told was an untruth.
A judge is REQUIRED to follow the law. A judge may not
indiscriminately dismiss such a case based on information that another
committed the same offense.

I personally spoke to the person this

happened too

I don't doubt you were told as much, but it's bunk.

and those are the facts.

The only facts here are 1) you were told as much and 2) apparently
believe it.

She did just what I said and the judge

dismissed the ticket, period.

Hearsay is not fact.

Try and stay out of trouble, convict.

Sorry Lee, Twist is right. The Judge can not throw out
a case like this because the officer littered. If the judge wants
to dismiss on for "in the interest of justice" fine, but I've been
to court dozens of times for tickets over the past 30 years, never
seen a case dismissed over the reasons like you're friend claims.

I agree, been to court on a number of occasions. As a teen I racked up 23
parking tickets at one time. Went to court several times as I had no money
to pay them. The last time I got arrested for said tickets. I asked the
judge to just put me in jail. He asked how long I was in the holding cell, I
told him 36 hours, and he said time served. This goes to show the judge can
be lenient, but has to uphold the law at all times.
