But here's the thing....wouldnt the cop have to be there and all that stuff if i requested a trial. I dont wanna go through all that cus then id have to pay for court fees and all that stuff..there's no way to just go and say hey judge i wanna talk to you about this ticket and call it a day?
option A on that ...
It's your word against the cop. If the cop is there, you're screwed. The judge will never, ever go against his guy's word. If the cop isn't there, it's your word against nobody's, you'll have a better shot of supervision with no points.
The officer is told when he has a court date, it's optional for him to be there, but he's always invited.
