I've heard of some chick beating a littering

ticket; chucked a cigarette butt out the window
while driving. She picked up the carbon paper

the Cop threw on the ground from his ticket

pad and brought it to court. When she showed
it to the judge he dismissed the ticket.

You "heard" incorrect. A judge is REQUIRED to follow the law. A judge
may not indiscriminately dismiss such a case based on information that
another committed the same offense. It has no relation to said original
crime. The imaginary woman's action that broke the law was in no manner
affected, prevented, altered, provoked, endorsed, or caused by your
imaginary officer's actions. In other words, his actions-post wrting her
the ticket do not excuse her actions. Of course, one would expect one
with a remote understanding of the law to realize such, but then again,
those who understand the law do not often find themselves in a position
where they nee plead guilty to criminal charges. Go ahead and 'splain.
