Education Presentation on the FTAP Program
This video is an educational presentation on the Failure to Appear/Pay (FTAP) Program in Texas. This program allows the Department of Public Safety to place a hold on a person’s ability to renew their driver’s license if they have not been able to pay off court debt associated with fine-only offenses (i.e., traffic tickets).
These holds are placed on non-violent Class C misdemeanors, penalizing drivers who are not a threat to public safety but are unable to afford the fines and fees associated with their traffic tickets. One of the heaviest users of this program is the city of El Paso, where there are more than 70,000 license holds. As a result, thousands of people experience difficulties ...

      They can take everything you have and you are even not entitled to a lawyer. So If you cannot defend yourself against the state and prove your innocence(!) after they robed you -- it is your problem. And they call it justice and due process in their justice department. I would like to see them with their air forfeited and argue about it in people's court. I bet they would not be able to raise any valid point against it, so "no objections" will go into the case.

    Hello, i was wondering i have 3 misdemeanors 2 class A and one class b. Two of them where from 1998 and one from 2010. I was wondering would i be able to seal all 3 misdemeanors from my record? The reason i want to do this is because i am trying to obtain my EFIN from the IRS to start my own tax preparation business and i am having issues passing the suitability check. I dont think it's fair that thing's that i did 14 years and 25 years ago, (when i was barely 21 years old) still affects my life now that i am 46 years old and I'm not the same person I was back then. It's also preventing me from being able to start my business to support myself and my children. What can i do? Thank you!

    I’m watching this to help someone else, and I’m floored at all the steps. The issue I’m helping with is that a gentleman I know has a suspended license from another state (NJ) who has never driven through the state and has not filed for bankruptcy where the mortgage could have potentially been in that state. The gentleman with the suspension is also deaf and cannot communicate without sign language or tty. He also cannot work while his license is suspended.🤞Ultimately, this video has helped with information that can be provided to make the process a little faster. I just wanted to give others a new perspective as to what they could potentially deal with for not even getting any tickets at all 🤷‍♀️.

    Gina Blanton, if you read this. I want to help you get your record sealed. Its not too difficult, but it is a little over $300 in filing fees. A long as you completed deferred adjudication and it’s been 2 years without another crime. You just need to print the application from county website. Fill it out and take it to district attorney office at courthouse with cashiers check or money order. In a few weeks they’ll send you the order of non-disclosure.

Learn what is and isnt protected under the 1st amendment, because you could get yourself in a bad situation like that girl from Kentucky that called people the N word 200 times. You have no way to beat a charge like that. There is no way you can say you didnt intend to provoke the person to violence.

    Everyone gets disorderly conduct. Ask an officer to leave, get disorderly conduct. Use the F bomb, get disorderly conduct. Police enter your home, you swear at them, you get disorderly conduct. Argue with a neighbor, get disorderly conduct. The disorderly conduct charge, is the bread that keeps the local legal system going.

    I don't know how to get this more traction; I spread it everywhere I can and it only gets a couple signs. The problem with that is, we are asking for technological reforms, and Mike Brown's Law passed the signature threshold very rapidly. BUT, all the people who signed it, and all the people who want these reforms, are not making any effort to reform the behavior of the cops themselves. Everything we are "fighting" for in this reform "movement" is guaranteed to fail if we keep hiring psychos with not even an attempt to get intelligent, socialized cops. So there is a disparity: the liberal model of the cognitive dissonance we love to point out in the other side. It's the same disparity that leads people to say "we have a bill of rights," as though a piece of paper is the end-all be-all. There is no point to claiming civil society unless you know and act on the fact that authority comes from the authors, and WE are the authors of civil society. So, if you read all this PLEASE try to help me get more than 300 signatures. If you want cameras and demilitarization, we have to address the human aspect! petitions.whitehouse.gov/petition/mandate-neuro-psychological-testing-all-law-enforcement-applicants-and-current-law-enforcement/yqcSp3Ns
