First rule of dealing with the police … never argue with a man with a gun, even if that man lawfully carries a gun and calls themselves a police officer.

I’ve personally seen court issued documents set to expire the day they were issued (they were meant to last a year). I’ve seen the issued date field empty. I’ve also seen them issued per the court’s website but unsigned.

Mistakes happen. If looking for a clerical error gets you off the hook that’s a good thing.
