QUESTION
Do I have a reasonable excuse to miss court if the officer writing a ticket with a court date that has already passed
Asked on Feb 12th, 2014 on Automobile Accidents - Virginia
More details to this question:
I was pulled over for a "failure to obey a highway sign" for making a left turn illegally during a certain time of the day in January of 2014. If the officer wrote up a date for February of 2013 instead of 2014, am I required to show up to court. I know people before have gotten out of court or had tickets dismissed for other miss-written information on a ticket.

You should direct this question to an attorney who handles traffic court matters in the town/city/county where you were issued the ticket. You could also call the court house in the town/city/county where you were issued the ticket to determine if you have been assigned a court date. Good luck with this matter.
