For nearly two years, the village of Brice has operated a camera-based system of citing drivers for speeding violations without going through Franklin County Municipal Court, an apparent violation of state law.
The village, surrounded by Columbus on the Southeast Side, has continued for the past year to issue the speeding tickets and collect thousands of dollars in fines in what appears to be defiance of an Ohio Supreme Court ruling.
A recent graduate of the Ohio State University Moritz College of Law is now the latest individual to challenge the practice.
Alexander Maxwell, unlike the majority of motorists who have been ticketed for speeding in Brice, had the advantage of three years in law school under his belt when he got a notice of violation in the mail from the village in December.
