William Edwards14 said:Regarding the legal fees and court costs, yeah, you’re absolutely entitled to get those back. You don't even need to file a separate lawsuit just to recover them; you basically just present the breakdown of the attorney fees, travel expenses, whatever, to the court. The whole cost ends up being the responsibility of whoever loses the case. So, I guess it doesn't really matter if the proceedings are suspended or if they go all the way through to a final verdict where you're cleared—either way, the loser picks up the tab.

Thanks so much for the info!

My citation process is currently underway and I have a question: once everything wraps up, if it's proven that I'm not at fault, am I entitled to reimbursement for my expenses (legal fees, lost wages, direct costs)? Or, in order to recover those costs, would I need to file a private lawsuit against the specific officer (who is only identified by an ID number)?
Thanks in advance for any insight
