Sorry to hear. seems if you got hounds your guilty.thet wild justice show crap and lies don't make hound people look anybetter. when A time when we have 5 times more hound people and have half the place's to hunt they must look at us as easy money!!
did CHC help anyway?
good luck

Hey Fishman

Was this in Nevada County courts?

Dale

yes nevada court and im also trying to figure out what they consider a hound dog n hunting mode i heard each officer may have a different call on that

Have you contacted a lawer yet ?

I had a deal with the DA up here about 10 years ago when a guy snuck into my dogs and shot a sow with a cub before I could get there, I confronted the guy, took his bear tag for positive ID, called Caltip (doing what I thought was the right thing and not busting his nose like I should have) took F&G out to the site where he shot the sow (he only took about 1/2 the bear out) they took pictures and reports to the DA and he refused to prosecute due to "lack of jury appeal" I know there's a different DA now but if you stand up to them they may backoff.

no ive had to get a public defender.sure wish i could afford a lawyer.ive hunted all my life n started huntin with hounds about 8 years ago and it seems it just gets worse ever year i tell u one thing if u got a dog box on your truck your 99.9 % to get pulled over.

TreeInc,

I was contacted by someone affiliated with this case, and subsequently provided my suggestions and encouragement and asked for some information (such as the report) once it became available so that tangible involvement from CHC could be considered further. I've not yet received any additional information.

fishman,

Having the charges revised by the authorities from hunting in a park to the use of more than one dog is a very fortunate turn of events given both your indication of your dogs being in the box and the presence of two bear tags and how the Department has defined how a dog is considered to be "in use" in writing.

If everything indicated up to now has been accurate, I truly hope you pursue this to a verdict and not accept a plea bargain.

they said i could not get a copy of the report myself so ive asked the plublic defender to try n get a copy of the park rangers report. RIFLEMAN do u have a number i can contact u at if so would like to tell u whats going on with this.

"RIFLEMAN"
Thanks for the reply! This is 1 ticket we all need to help with!!!
