Typically, the officer won't show up on the first court appearance. You will plead guilty, not guilty, or no contest. If you please not guilty, the court date will be set up for the officer to show up. The officer gets paid his regular salary to go to the court date.
You do whatever you were instructed to do by the Officer or what is written on the ticket. Do not ignore this.
The court is listed on the speeding ticket. If you have questions about the procedure, contact the clerk of court. It'd be an appeals court.

A serious CDL violation such as a 25 over speeding ticket can cost you your job not to mention the increase in your personal car insurance.

I assume that this is a South Carolina speeding ticket in Oconee county. You can pay your ticket by mail. The address of the court is in the middle of the ticket. Usually it is a Summary county court or it could be a city court. You have to pay by money order, they will not accept a check for a South Carolina speeding ticket. If the fine is more than the minimum of 81.00 you may want to consider retaining a South Carolina traffic attorney to get the ticket reduced.
