The defendant loses the case by default. The charge is deemed valid and all monetary fines and other penalties will apply; in most cases a warrant will be issued for the person in question.

You don't plead guilty "on a traffic ticket" unless you post your fine, request a court date, and then fail to show up at the traffic court hearing.You are then automatically adjudged guilty by reason of your failing to appear to defend yourself. If you DO go to court you may plead not guilty to the offense, and the judge will grant a hearing in which you and the officer will give testimony, and then the judge will render his verdict. If you have previously pled guilty, or forfeited your fine, in court you will have to file a motion to re-open the case.

What happens when you go to court for trespassing?

Trespass is usually a minor misdemanor charge. When appearing in court you will get the opportunity to plead guilty or not guilty. If you plead guilty you will probably be fined or receive some kind of community service sentence. If you plead not guilty, the court will hear the testimony of your accuser (the complainant) and you will get a chance to tell your side of the story. The judge will then render a decision as to your guilt, or lack thereof.
