Filing an Objection to a Penalty Notice

Questioner

Yesterday I got a ticket for apparent public intoxication...but I just stood there in front of my door after my neighbor (known as a nagging old woman) called the police for an apparent "nuisance," even though the police who called said it wasn't so bad. I was so angry with her that I banged on her door...after the police told me to go inside and have fun with my family, because my uncles, aunt, and mother were visiting. It was already 4:15 a.m. on June 20, 2020. And that was two years ago since my family had last visited. Now I disagree with three things... first, I was at home and after the police rang the doorbell, I stood in front of my door, which also included my neighbor's right of way, so yes, "public drunkenness." I was just standing in front of my door talking to the police... and second, it says the date is June 25, 2020, at 9:10, which is Thursday morning, six days later... while it was June 20, 2020, around 4:00 AM... can I object to that?

Questioner

Dear questioner, Objecting to a penalty notice is always worthwhile, as it will at least lead to a reassessment by the Public Prosecution Service. If the penalty notice contains errors, the chances of success are even greater. NOTE: the deadline for objection is 14 days! If necessary, see https://www.ske-advocaten.nl/strafbeschikking-verzetschrift-generator/ Good luck with that. Lawyer
