If I may comment on this issue in the abstract: don't count on technicalities to get you out of legal trouble. Those are fine if you're very wealthy and have money for the types of lawyers and appeals that can use them. For everyone else, you don't want to be so close to the line that you end up losing because the judge doesn't like your face and woke up on the wrong side of the bed.
