My question involves traffic court in the State of: California
Hi,
A few months ago I was charged with the 21801(A) VC-I that I Failed to yield when making a left turn to oncoming traffic. I managed to get a court date for my arraignment and filed for discovery a week ago and today received a response from the DA.
"Please be advised that due to limited resources the DA's Office does not appear on infraction cases and has authorized the citing agencies to appear and present evidence in these matters. The citing agencies also coordinate the forwarding of Police reports and any other related material necessary for the presentation of any defense. In the event that you have a disagreement with the sufficiency of the discovery you receive from the citing agency you may bring this to the attention of the trial court for resolution..."
It goes on but thats the important part I guess. First I sent the discovery request to the DA as my research told me to do so I don't know what they mean my citing agency. Can I request my case be dismissed on the grounds that I did not receive a copy of the officer's notes related to my traffic violation as is my right? I don't know the legal way to state this in court but I would appreciate any effort on how to proceed.
Thanks![]()
