MOST traffic violation violations are considered to be misdemeanors unless there are extenuating circumstances to the issuance of the citation (i.e.- a death was involved - vehicular homicide - fleeing to elude - etc))

got a speeding ticket 5 months ago in Southampton New York pleaded not guilty and sent it in have not heard from the courts as to when i am supposed to appear before the judge.is there a limitation on the ticket itself as to when they can charge me or does it stay in limbo.
Generally not. A misdemeanor is possible, but a felony charge would be considered extreme in most jurisdictions (unless there were felonious charges on top of the speeding ticket).
It is not a felony, but you will have a warrant put out for your arrest if you continue to ignore the ticket. Below is a link about failure to appear.
