Failure to Register a Vehicle in Florida
Under Florida law, any car that is owned must be registered. Registering a vehicle provides clear ownership of the car.When registering a vehicle, a metal license plate will be issued with a validation decal and a registration certificate. This certificate will prove that you have paid for all taxes and registration fees on the car.
Registering a vehicle can be done by providing the car’s original title along with proof of insurance.If you purchased the vehicle from a car dealership, they will take care of registering it for a fee.If you bought the car off someone, you will need to register it yourself at the local DMV.If you have just moved to the area, you have ten days to register your car.
If you fail to register a vehicle in Florida in the required time frame, you will be charged a delinquent fee. If you fail to register a vehicle for the long term, it is viewed as a second-degree misdemeanor. It could be punishable by up to sixty days in jail and six months of probation. There could also be a $500 fee imposed.
Motion to Consolidate
A motion to consolidate filing means the defendant and his or her lawyer wish to combine two cases into one hearing.Many times, this will be granted if the two cases have similar questions of law.A motion to consolidate will save all parties time, expenses of litigation, and will assist in promoting the efficient use of judicial resources.
