Summary of Issue

To whom it might concern: During a Level I Driver/Vehicle Inspection (see attachment #1) we were issued an "out of service" violation - 395.8E. Our driver, Mr. Nicolae Nicolaescu challenged the violation in front of the Schenectady City Court and he was granted a non guilty verdict by the Honorable Mark W. Blanchfield (see attachment #2). Since than, we have contacted the New York State Department of Transportation via DataQ in attempt to remove the violation from our company record. So far, we are unsuccessful in convincing the authorities to change their record to reflect the decision of the court.Hence, we beseech your help in removing this out service violation. Thank you immensely for your time and effort. Please don't hesitate to contact at (630)338-0112 if you have any questions. Respectfully, Alex Sariev - President

Request for Action

We would appreciate if the "out of service" 395.8e if removed from our record since we were pronounced not guilty in a court of law.
