I could have talked to the prosecutor if I wanted to, and asked for a break. He's a nice guy, I knew him when he was still wet behind the ears.

If I had been representing someone other than myself, I would have done so.

Thought it would be fun to see the expression on the judge's face. It was. ;^)

Also the winks from the defense attorneys as I left the court, taking it head on and prevailing in open court.

BTW, I am sure you never had to pay a penny to get your tickets dismissed. "You scratch my back, I'll scratch yours."

Maybe that enhances your reputation amongst other lawyers, but it diminishes it in my mind.

the careful planning and execution of successful appeals to prosecutorial discretion

If you are doing this on a regular basis you are abusing the system.
