You should contact a criminal attorney immediately to ensure you can stop the court process. You want to avoid having a criminal complaint issue. That can be done if a clerk hearing is requested. If the matter is stopped at the clerk level no criminal record will be created. If a criminal complaint issues a record will be created and you will have to appear before a Judge. If this is a first offense and you have no criminal record you have a good opportunity of protecting your record. For more information on auto crimes see my website.
