Will court go easy if you get insured before hearing for uninsured?

No. What matters is whether you were insured at the time, not whether you purchase insurance after the fact.
Added: In my experience, the fact that you appear in court and can show proof you became insured after the ticket, the court may, in all probability, rediuce the fine or treat you more lightly than if you hadn't. HOWEVER - if you are a scofflaw and have a long DMV record, this may not occur. It's all up tpo the judge.

What does an uninsured driver do when hit by an insured driver?
There are many questions to be asked with this question. Are you saying an uninsured driver, driving a vehicle with no insurance? First of all you hope that the insured drivers insurance company accepts liability for the damage. If they don't then your only hope is to get a lawyer and take them to court. If you can't afford a lawyer then small claims court may be an option. For a bit of advise, don't drive uninsured.

An insured driver is unknowingly driving an uninsured car and has an accident. The owner of the uninsured car is injured. Who pays for the damages and injuries?
You can check with your own insurance and it will most likely cover your medical costs but I doubt they will pay for the damage to the vehicle. If you wish to get payment from the uninsured auto owner you will have to sue them in civil court. Good luck
If you were ticketed driving someone else's uninsured car can you claim a 'mechanical violation' so the court goes after the owner?
you can claim anything you want- will the court believe it ??/ Did you know the vehicle was uninsured? If you did youre dreaming thinking the "mechanical violation "is valid.That is a financial violation , which should be against the owner, not the operator.That's the argument I would make to the court, as the owner of the vehicle has a responsability to make sure that his vehicle is insured if it is going to be operated on a public hiway.
What happens if you get hit by a car who isn't insured and you only have liability?

What is a contested hearing?
"Contested" means that the parties do not agree on some issue or statement of facts pertaining to the matter before the court.

The judge will make a decision at that hearing or within a short period thereafter and will then issue a court order. The court order will be binding on both parties unless there is an appeal made to a higher court.

No, a court case refers to the legal dispute being resolved in court, involving legal arguments, evidence, and a final decision by a judge or jury. A court hearing is a specific event within a court case where arguments are presented, witnesses testify, and rulings may be made by the judge.
What court hears cases after the case has been tried before?
An appellate court. This court specializes in hearing cases that people request for retrial (appeals).
How do you request a hearing?
That depends on who you are asking for the hearing. In a "Court of Law" you must have an active case before the court, then file a motion that the court must rule on and after the other parties (or state) is served with a copy of the motion, you request that the court administrator set a hearing for the motion (or case, if you have announced ready for trial). In an "Administrative Court" (a quasi non-judicial court) the procedures differ greatly and you need to contact the court to find their procedures.
