Go down to your city/county building and ask the the help/info desk for the District Attorney's office. They'll take your money (you are planning to pay, right?) or set up the way to handle it. If you go *now* they won't tack on the skipping the court date charge.
Then you won't get it dismissed or the cost lowered.
if you have missed your court date and are caught driving on a suspended license they will arrest you. My fiancee had a suspended license and was paid up on his insurance and tags and everything but missed his court date and went to jail.
A person can pay an unpaid speeding ticket at the courthouse in the county the ticket was given in. If the person has missed the court date, their license may be revoked for non payment.
Anyone should always pay their seat belt tickets. If you do not, you will be given a summons to appear in court. If you do not show up to court, a warrant will be issued. If this happens, the best thing to do is pay your ticket and turn yourself in so it does not get worse.
Assuming the ticket was not overdue on Mar. 15, and If you can prove where you were at the time of your trial, most probably, but be prepared to pay the original ticket. If the ticket was overdue then, the court may opt to revert your legal standing as it were to the time you were deployed. In other words, you won't be in trouble for the time you were gone, but if you were already late, you'll get nailed for that. If this was a DUI, or major violation (reckless, etc.) I'd consider a chat with a lawyer.
You still have the pay the ticket or go to court to fight it signed or not.
Go to the court either during the time its in session or on a day when the judge is there and let him know you missed the court date i missed mine i went back after almost two years and the judge handled it right there for me all i had to do was pay the fine and walked away
Your court date is generally listed on your ticket. You must pay the ticket before this date or show up for court.
the back of the ticket will tell you where you must respond and by what date...call the court clerk of the court shown on the ticket
Just because the officer isn't in court doesn't mean your charge will be automatically dismissed. The first time you go to court may be an arraignment date where the officer isn't even summoned to court. If you plead not guilty, he will be summoned for the next court date. If he never shows after a few court dates, then your charge is likely to be dismissed, but by then you've missed enough work to more than pay for the ticket.
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.
you have no ticket. or unless your name is on it.
