1Opinion of the Court

*764 MEMORANDUM OPINION GRANTING DEFENDANT’S MOTION FOR JUDGMENT OF ACQUITTAL AND I OR DISMISSAL

CHARLES B. DAY, United States Magistrate Judge.

On countless occasions on the federal lands within the State of Maryland, law enforcement officers issue traffic citations known as “Violation Notices” to motorists for alleged traffic offenses. When a trial is necessary to determine whether the motorist is guilty, the Government must clearly indicate that a motor vehicle offense has occurred, and identify the wrongful conduct. On this occasion, the Government has missed the mark.
