My question involves traffic court in the State of: Pennsylvania
I had no idea of the name of the officer that pulled me over for rolling through a stop sign. It was dark and he scribbled his name on the ticket. I get the docket sheet and it states the arresting officer's name. I went to the magistrate today and the right cop was there, but that wasn't his name. He let me amend it to a lesser charge with no points which added $50 on the fine. But even the judge knew it was incorrect. In every case that went before me, the judge said the defendants name and the cops name. In mine, he said my name, looked at the guy who stood up and when he realized it wasn't the cops whose name was on his form (small town), he just stopped. Never said that dudes name. Does this make any difference? I already agreed to the lesser charge but the docket sheet still says the wrong name.
