No.

If you are the plaintiff (i.e.: civil case), you can dismiss your case at any time. If you are the defendant, you would have to settle with the plaintiff for them to dismiss the case.

In a criminal case, it the statute has a fine schedule associated with it, you may be allowed to do so, or the state may agree to dismiss your case in exchange for something they need, or will allow you to plead guilty to avoid trial.

Can a judge do anything more to you on an adjudicated case and do you still have a fine to pay?

What if wrong name on traffic violation in Texas?

Well if your driver's license number is on the citation that's what they will suspend when you dont pay the fine. If you contest in court they will amend the name and the court will correct it. I had a similar case and my defense was that the fine was not for me and that the number was incorrect giving mine by mistake. In this case I won but every case and judge are diferent.

Is it legal for a police officer ot force you to pay for a ticket before your court date?

No police Officer has the power to make you pay a ticket before the court date. I happen to be a police Officer. When a Police Officer writes you a traffic citation he will give you a Court date that you are suppose to attend to prove your innocence. If you choose not to attend court you have the option to pay the fine. Paying the fine before your court date basically is saying that you are guilty. If the officer tells you to just pay the fine reason being is that he either has a weak case against you or he wont show up to court. Now for Example if you plea not guilty in court the Judge will give you another court date to attend in which the officer will be given a subpoena to testify against you. If the Officer does not show up in court the case will be dismissed.


What happens when you appear in court on the specified date but you do not have the money to pay for the ticket in atlanta GA?

In the majority of jurisdictions, when you go to court, you have the opportunity to plead your case, so you may or may not have to pay the fine listed on your ticket. If you are found guilty, you must pay whatever fine that's imposed but are usually given a certain amount of time in which to do so.


Failure to appear in traffic court?

What does adjudicated mean on a traffic ticket mean?

When you receive a ticket, it is a summons to appear in court. You have three options any time you get a ticket: you can accept guilt and pay the fine, you can contest it and appear before a magistrate, or you can ignore it. If you accept guilt and pay the fine, the ticket is adjudicated. It has been resolved by the court. If you contest it and see the magistrate, he will either find in your favor (and the ticket is adjudicated because you are acquitted), or he finds you guilty and you pay the fine. At that time you may appeal and take the case to a higher court, but if you do it will not be adjudicated until the case is heard and ruled upon. If you ignore it, eventually the court may issue a bench warrant on you. When you are eventually collected by LEOs, and you face the judge, you will be found in contempt of court, your traffic fine will come due, and you will be sentenced. Once that sentence is read, the case is adjudicated.

Do i pay for my traffic ticket right after court is done?

I have court next week and i have not paid for my ticket. I live in California, San Diego. On my courtesy notice it specifically states, "Failure to take action on or brefore date or to appear on the court date you scheduled may results in one or more of the following" So the reason i haven't paid it yet is because i want to go to court to try to get the fine lowered and so that i can attend traffic school. But what worries me and is my question is that, do i have to pay for my ticket before my court date even though im going to court? im scared that im suppose to be paying for it before my court date but if it gets lowered after i already paid, then what do i do? Im expecting to go to court that day, and then after my case is over, pay for the fine there, is that how it works? do i pay right after i talk to the judge? or do i pay during the case? does the judge give me more time to pay if i appear court? should i just pay for it and still go to court?
