By last week's primary, he had 55 outstanding violations with $11,427.50 in fines, the Philadelphia Inquirer reported.Singletary had run up tickets for reckless driving, driving without a license, driving without insurance and driving an unregistered vehicle. His license has been suspended through 2011.Richard Hoy, a lawyer representing the candidate, said his father paid all the fines Monday. Hoy said Singletary was responsible for only half the violations, with the others accumulated by his brother driving a car belonging to Singletary.Bernard Strain, who won the Republican nomination but lost in the Democratic primary, made Singletary's fines public.Copyright 2007 by UPI
