Just a bunch of greedy crooks here
Court is fine if you are local, but they process a lot of drivers from out-of-state due to proximity of highways going through Albany. For me it was a total nightmare-- everything must be done in person unless you don't need documents in a timely manner... Then you can use snail-mail. Their personnel constantly gave me different answers and the people with seniority who can process more complicated things all leave by 3:30... I needed court documents faxed or emailed to me to clear up a MA suspension (enacted due to reciprocity with New York's suspension) on a time crunch and they would not even mail the documents on request over the phone or fax... You either had to mail a paper request (3 days) and wait for it to come back (another 3 days) OR get a 2.5 hour ride to do it in person. They would not fax me anything. Lastly, they made me show up for court 3 seperate times (unnecessarily-- no action taken when I got there!) after the initial appearance after my incident. No mercy on people who live far away and don't have a license to get there! Can't they do any of the forms by fax or even electronically?
I'm a traffic lawyer and I've been to courts all over. Guilderland has high volume but the staff are good and the judges are great. I have a personal beef with one of the judges but he's still a good judge and was a good prosecutor before.
Incompetent small-town justice. They flaunt constitutional protections and run the county like a fiefdom. Professional extortionists.
They refuse to let me pay to lift my suspension so i can actually drive to court and said there was nothing i can do until i come to court. I live about an hour away and was told by one woman that i could come in and pay and another when i was there saying that they wont until i got go court. Good logic. #Ipayyourbills
