We start from a Lorentz non-invariant Abelian-Higgs model in 1+3 dimensions, and carry out its dimensional reduction to D=1+2. The planar model resulting thereof is composed by a Maxwell-Chern-Simons-Proca gauge sector, a massive scalar sector, and a mixing term (involving the fixed background, vμ) that realizes Lorentz violation for the reduced model. Vortex-type solutions of the planar model are investigated,revealing charged vortex configurations that recover the usual Nielsen-Olesen configuration in the asymptotic regime. The Aharonov-Casher Effect in layered superconductors, that shows interference of neutral particles with a magnetic moment moving around a line charge, is also studied. Our charged vortex solutions exhibit a screened electric field that induces the same phase shift as the one caused by the charged wire.
