Southeast seiner charged with misreporting catch

From the Alaska State Troopers:

Location: Sitka, Hidden Falls
Type: Fish ticket
On 1/30/14 Alaska Wildlife Troopers, Sitka Post, cited Christian Buschmann, 26, of Petersburg, for failing to provide factual catch data on a commercial fish ticket. Investigation showed Buschmann had operated commercial seine gear and retained salmon in the Hidden Falls area in July 2013, but reported the fish in another area. Buschmann was issued a summons to appear in Sitka District Court.

  1. Does anyone know why it is taking the State Troopers over 6 months to issue these citations? I recently received a similar ticket, and the cop, after being asked stated that he was at training and could not issue me the citation earlier. in my case, that would mean he was at training for a little over 7 months, which sounded like a stretcher. Can anyone recommend an attorney in Southeast that specializes in fishing tickets?
