If the time was completely off and you can account for the time listed on the ticket, you can argue that the offense could not have taken place since you were elsewhere. However, this assumes that the prosecution does not have any other evidence (e.g. a tape of the encounter or witnesses) that would otherwise prove your guilt. If you're referring to a traffic ticket, it is best to simply show up to court and ask for lenency than it is to nit-pick the details of the ticket. Judges will often see this as immaturity on your part to accept the consequences of your actions. This WikiAnswer should not be a substitute for personalized legal advise. As always, it is best to consult with an attorney who can best assess your situation and provide you with answers that can best help you.

== == You will have to attend on the "court date" and try to have it with-drawn, by the prosecutor, on the basis that the citation is "defective" it it's information. He/she may drop it, or may have the officer re-write another charge on the spot. It will be decided on YOUR past driving record, and YOUR attitude towards the officer at the time you were stopped.
