What is a arainment?
I do not think this is the right spelling. It should be ARRAIGNMENT --- that means to call him before the court to answer an accusation. In normal practice, arraignment is a hearing where a person accused of a crime must enter a plea of guilty, not guilty, or nolo contendre. If they enter a not guilty plea, the case will then be sent on for trial.
Should you plea guilty to turning on no turn on red sign?
If the cops have concrete evidence of your violation, it's best to plead guilty in a sincere manner. Avoid transferring responsibility. As long as you show understanding of your violation and remorse for committing it, then you can generally plead guilty and get out of it by taking a driving course. Added: Before you plead anything to a traffic offense, you should check with your state's DMV for their point system. You will want to know how this offense will look on your record. Pleading guilty does not "get you out of it." Pleading guilty is accepting all consequences. Some courts will offer a reduction in exchange for driving school or other considerations, which may help keep your record clear. You should go to court or talk to a lawyer to find out if this is available, even if you are actually guilty.
Suppose that a woman named Harriet Miller comes before the judge in a pretrial hearing?
Actually, I would need more details in this situation. Did she plead guilty all on her own. Did she cop a plea? What preceded the plea? Did she receive her Miranda rights? A number of details apply. She has entered her plea. She will have a pre-sentencing hearing. She has the right to present relevant information to the judge about her situation before she receives her sentence. She should get with her lawyer in order to decide what to say. If her lawyer refused to see her before she saw the judge, she should tell the judge. If her lawyer did not see her before she entered her plea, she should tell the judge. This could be her only chance to face the judge. It is important.

Can you change your plea on a traffic ticket from guilty to not guilty?
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.
