Exam Guidelines: Question 8 - Reckless Driving Case Presentation
When charged with reckless driving, your case will typically be presented to a court of limited jurisdiction. Limited jurisdiction courts handle cases that are less serious, such as traffic violations, misdemeanors, and some civil cases.
These courts have the authority to hear the case, issue judgments, and impose penalties within specific limits. On the other hand, courts of general jurisdiction have broader authority and can handle more serious criminal cases and civil cases.
It is important to understand the different types of courts and their jurisdictions to navigate the legal process effectively.
