Character and Fitness Portion of the Application
Hey guys! I have a quick question. I am applying to law school in Georgia, and I got into a rear-end car crash a year ago. No one was injured and the damage was minimal, but I was cited and paid a fine. Do I need disclose that? Thank you so much for your help!

It depends on the specific language of the instructions and the exact nature of the citation. Was it a misdemeanor? Just be very strict with your interpretation and lean towards full disclosure if there is any remaining ambiguity. Just say something like "In 2016, I received a citation for [insert citation]. The fine was $100, which I paid promptly." No big deal; it won't hurt your app in the slightest.
