He will not in Upstate New York where the judges work on commission.
ANOTHER VIEW: Much depends on the jurisdiction in which youlive. Judges have wide authority and occaionally if you can produce a valid registration within 24 hours they will dismiss the charge. HOWEVER - MUCH depends on just how long the registration was expired. If for weeks or months - forget it.
Apparently in most cases, if you show up to court with everything up to date and a good registration you may have the fine dismissed and just pay a $10 administration fee. If you're guilty, you don't get points on your license at least because it's a non-moving violation.
The penalty for driving with an expired license in Tennessee is probably just a ticket and a small fine. If you go to court, the judge may waive any punishment since it was probably just overlooked.
SMA on a NY license plate is State Magistrate Assoc this person could be a NY State Judge
The fine will depend on what the judge sets in the hearing. Usually, you can get off with a warning and a small fine for the ticket.
I'm not sure about in Warren County, but my girlfriend (who has had a total of 32 traffic tickets/violations in a year and a half) got Aggravated Unlicensed (5th occurance), Switched plates, no insurance, no registration, no more than 1 tag, license plate light out and obstruction of view in Onondaga County and she got a couple hundred dollars in fines and got her license back as soon as she paid them.I however, got aggravated unlicensed (1st occurance), driving out of class and obstruction of view, in the same county with a different judge, and I wasnt able to get my license back for 3 years.You need a good lawyer and pray that you have a nice judge.

Some states require a person to come to court for an expired license plate even if they pay the ticket in advance. If a person can not pay the ticket until after the court date, it is best to go to court to speak to a judge about the situation. If a person does not go to court, a judge can issue a bench warrant for their arrest. In the state if Ohio, contact the court to ask direct questions so that accurate information is relayed.
Yes, and depending on your state, you may need to go before a judge.
Yes, you do have to
A judge can do whatever they choose to do. The bottom line, registration must be with the car. If you have a really good reason the car was separate from its proof of registration, you might get lucky. For example, My wife went into labor the day I received the registration and I forgot to put it in the car with all the excitement. But even if a Judge feels badly for you and lets you off with a lecture, you could still have court costs and reduced fine.
ANSWER TO get it notarized by a judge.
You could appeal to a judge, but don't count on it.
