Anyone help with this suggestion? If I search for "thin air", this is the only post that is referenced. Thanks.

Quick question if this is still active. If there is a court date in the future regarding my situation, what would the arrangements be if I wanted to defend the keeper on their behalf in court? Coupon-mad has been active in my thread, I was not the driver but I was in the car when both tickets were issued. The keeper does not have great English and I have basically been doing all of the research and drafting letters on their behalf (obviously with their consent and signatures when needed). So could there be arrangements where I would act as the defendant, with the keeper present?0
