Mother of man fatally shot by Farmington police following traffic stop recently fought citations given during a traffic stop of her own, even suing the police department.
Chase Allan was shot in the parking lot of the Farmington post office Wednesday after being stopped for driving without license plates. Police have yet to say what provoked officers to open fire on Allan as he sat inside his car.
Diane Allan was cited for both offenses and looked to fight the tickets and have them dismissed. However, after failing to appear for a scheduled pretrial conference in June, Allan called the court"upset her motion had not been reviewed by the judge," according to documents. On the day of her trial on Sept. 21, Allan again asked for a continuance, which was denied by the judge. Later, when asked by the court if she was planning to provide a defense, Allan left the courtroom saying she would not be providing anything and that it was not a trial.
