fakin shiet
so if i take this to a court trial thing? and if a cop doesn't show up. . i'm cleared right? and what happens if the cop does show up?
iono you guys = ( help = )

klepto

so umm, is that you in your av?

jk, anyways take it to court, if the cop doesnt show, the case gets tossed. Or better yet, opt to contest in writing. most of the time the cop wont even bother to write his side of the case back and you'll win.

Word to that. Do a trial by written declaration. Cops get paid to go to court and fight you, they don't get paid to write an essay about what you did wrong. I got off on a ticket for speeding/wreckless driving that I wrote a trial by written declaration for.

and uh, is that you in your av?

LLWesMan

And where's Diamond Bar anyways?

if u go to court. u have to take bail money. depends on ur ticket. itll be refunded after a couple of weeks.

klepto

yea you always have to front the money first, then if you win they give it back to you

so a trial by writing . . .hmm. .
all you do is write an essay? lol. .. easy stuff and what do you write about?
or is going to a traffic school a better idea?

Ass system around here. I got a ticket once and went to court. The cop didn't show up and I still had to pay the fine. bastards

That's gay, sucks bein a masshole

I have my court date on sept 1st, pleading not guilty to driving with expired inspection, because i got nailed the day after i got my car out of the tranny shop, and had an appointment that next week to get my brakes installed and inspection done. Hoping the drop the case, and give me my $$ back cuz I got the car inspected.

Go to the DMV website, theres a section on trial by written declaration. Traffic school is a shitty idea because you have to pay the ticket.

Good luck man... It doen't mater if the cop shows. The ticket will stand... Just plead your case in front of the judge. You might get lucky.

jus_cl

challenge the ticket if the copdosent show up the ticket is dissmissed. but they will give u a diffrwent trial date and bring bail money.

i think cali laws are different than oklahoma.

i took my ticket to trial. the cop didnt show up and it got dropped. on the other hand my mom took her ticket to trial and her cop showed up. she lost, but they dropped the fine by 50%. u never kno what happens when u take it to trial.

jus_cl

trust me if u challenge and the cop dosent show up its dissmissed

some states the law is different, but most states if the cop does'nt show, it's toast.
