Officers are often subject to last minute calls to duty for service, or are caught on an assignment when they should be responding to court. Depending on the kind of case it is, the judge MAY order a continuance to another court date, or they may choose to dismiss the case for "want of prosecution."
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.
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.
it's easy just date Helen to 100% then you will get cop outfit change into the cop outfit get in a cop car and do the mission That doesnt answer the right question!!!
Anyone can be called to court to be a witness, including a resigned cop.
The officer is the key witness, the case would be canceled.
Only if you want to contribute to the improvement and initiative of your city government. If its the wrong amount, go to traffic court on the date indicated. 90% of the time the cop won't show up and you pay nothing. If the cop shows, tell the judge the amount is in error and will wait for the judge to correct the overcharge.

no
In almost every state it doesn't matter. It's not a speeding ticket, you aren't going to get out of it because the cop doesn't show up. All they need is his report, but he most likely will show up for that. Either way it doesn't matter whether he is there or not. You will most likely get pre-trial diversion if you don't have any priors.
Probably, yes.
