I'd wager that there is NOTHING in the contract that the city MUST defend the tickets in court to the best of its ability. Hell, the Bill White and Annise Parker administrations clearly are not negotiating contracts in good faith on the behalf of the public nor adequately defending the city in frivolous lawsuits.

The city ads on behalf of KEEPING the red light cameras denounced some "shady" monied interest that would profit from the removal of these cameras.

Seems those who made revenue from the cameras and the lawyers who would offer to clear this from your record stood to make more money.

Everyone on this forum is going to blow hot air about these things, but no one is going to do anything.
