a judge changed my ticket from suspended license plates to fictitious. Can this happen?

I rec’d a ticket for expired plates. Plates were taken away. Car was sold. got a warrant for the ticket, paid for it in full. I have copy. Just realized that Judge changed plate from susp to fictitious. I was denied a job because of this; I was unaware that the Judge changed from suspended to fictitious. The plates were not fictitious; they belonged to the car; they were just expired. Ticket given to me in Tolleson, Arizona

Your situation doesn't make sense.  Why would your plates be taken if all they were were expired? You would simply get a fix it ticket or a tow.  In terms of car being sold, how long didn't you pay? In terms of a warrant, oh boy.

I don't know what to tell you other than it may have appeared that in fact, these were fictitious plates.  If indeed they were not, you need to hire a lawyer to help you get out of this.  Try www.attorneypages.com and check his or her record at the Arizona State Bar.
