WE THE PEOPLE VS. RED-LIGHT-TICKETS

drivers contest and dismiss their traffic
tickets.
The July 2010 Supreme Court decision
(People v. Park) ruling in favor
of the motorist ticketed for a red light
camera ticket in Santa Ana, CA
because the city lacked compliance with the requirement of Vehicle
Code
section 21455.5 (b) (that a municipality authorizing an automated
enforcement
system at an intersection comply with the prescribed warning
requirements
prior to issuing citations) appears to have opened the floodgates
for litigation
and paved the way for class actions law suits.
This is likely why the cities of
Santa Ana, CA and West Hollywood, CA sent
letters to the court in hopes of persuading the
court to de-publish the decision,
but it was to no avail as in October
2010, the Supreme Court denied the cities’
requests for de-publication.
Now, motorist Robert Plumleigh ticketed in Santa Ana at one of the
sixteen
camera enforced intersections where the city had failed to provide
the required
30-day warning period, seeks to have all such
illegally issued tickets refunded.
The suit seeks to refund tickets issued to motorists at the
sixteen camera
enforced intersections in Santa Ana, CA between May 2003 and
November
25, 2009.
The class action names the Santa Ana Police Chief, the Santa Ana
City Attorney,
and Red Flex (out of state camera company) as defendants, though
Red Flex
seeks to get out of the lawsuit, one reason being the warning
period law allegedly
does not apply to a private company.
Plumleigh’s lawyer was given until December to file for class
certification.
