Discontinuation of the fine proceedings – accusation of speeding
Our client was fined by the Zweckverband kommunale Verkehrsüberwachung Südostbayern for exceeding the speed limit by 24 km/h in the district of Schweinfurt.
A fine of €115 was imposed for this. As usual, we first requested comprehensive access to the files, which included the measurement data. However, the authority only partially complied with this, so that we filed an application for a court decision with regard to the series of measurements. However, this was not forwarded by the authorities to the competent district court for processing.
After 6 months, the statute of limitations had expired and the proceedings had to be discontinued at our request.
It was ultimately not possible to clarify whether our client was actually speeding on the basis of the measurement data.
However, since she did not have to pay a fine and no driving ban was imposed, the result is the complete success of our work.
