Most courts/judges will convict without a shot being taken, law says "hunting or discharging"..
I'm gonna guess the gun was loaded...
District court is by Judge, appeal to Circuit Court, ask for a jury. DA will "usually" settle it before court, lesser fine, to not have to try a hunting case like this. Fine seems a little steep, I'd expect at least half that amount.
doecommander, nice asshole comment, you wern't there and know absolutely nothing about the incident.
Fred, glad you're back to straighten the nut out. I tried on an earlier thread, but was just wasting time. The dude has some serious issues with game wardens. Said all of you are assholes, but won't explain why.
I agree also that the issue is going to revolve on whether the gun was loaded or not.
Sounds like this guy is an outlaw who has no respect for our game laws.
The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing.
