What did the card sell for, maybe $50? Great, you spend 2 days in court and $5,000 on a lawyer to get back your $50 card. Great return on investment. ( Yes, I know the old story that it is not the cost, it is the principle of the thing....) So you got caught doing maybe nothing, maybe something.... exactly what law did you break? Your email has no references to a reputed law offense..... And, since you brought it up, what ethnic Asian group are you a part of? ( just so we can put this in context...)

Your lawyer should be able to get it back for you. I would also protest the fine by going to court. You have the right to your day in court. Just like speeding tickets, you're innocent until proved guilty or until you pay the fine. KN
