Probably - in my case by the time Court day rolled around and everyone in the neighborhood showed up with their tickets along with all the other misc cut through offenders, the line for court stretched through City Hall and way out into the parking lot. While standing in line I heard lots of people all grumbling about my neighborhood and the trap. For me however - 60 years old and a clean record - it was just 6 months probation and no fine and out the door.
I'm not sure anyone speaks to the neighbor any more who complained to the city.
