Alright, i got caught tresspassing in a state park. I ran and left my keys behind. So the cop picked them up and found my car. It took me about 1/2 hour to get back to my car and by that time the cops were there waiting for me. They had gone through my car/wallet and got mine and my friends lisences. Then they gave us each a 300 dollar fine. Just wondering if it was legal for them to go through my car. I really don't want to pay the fine.

all depends on your state laws, there is a website that has all that law ---- on it i dont remember it

con

why the ---- did you run if your car was there?

that has to be against the constitution, they didn't have the right to go through your ----, that's tresspassing, only worthless pieces of ---- tresspass.

illegal search and siezure. you might even be able to get them for trespassing since you can't get them for breaking and entering since they had your keys. also invasion of privacy may apply

but it was in a state park, would this change the laws in anyway?

I can't see that being legal.

I posted this story a few days ago, but I'll post it again.

I got arrested for curfew violation in Laughlin when I was like 15. Security guards surrounded me and I got taken to the secret area of the Riverside casino. They took the room key out of my pocket and went up to teh room, let themsleves in and busted my brother and his friend getting cloudy. Yeah, we all got arrested and ----, but the charges got dropped because they didn't have the rigth to just bust into the room without and reason.

ya, but becuase they went into the room without a warrent they had to drop the charges. They already had me for tresspassing.

I just want to get these ******* back

in a state park, the state's laws still apply, it's part of the state, if you kill someone in the park the concequences are the same if you killed that person in a port-o-potty. And all federal laws apply to all 50 states.

Best thing to do since you have no legal knowledge is to get a lawyer he'll probably be able to drop your fines and get you some cash if he/she is good enough. That is a pending lawsuit right there in my eyes which equals $$$$$

sounds like a plan to me
