My question involves traffic court in the State of:California
My traffic ticket date is on 7/2/08.
My Trail De NoVo Original Court date is 12/10/08.
I rescheduled to 1/14/09, and I came to the court on time.
My name was not called in the court. The Judge said no trail record for me today. Of course, the officer who cited me is not present.I didn't bring the Letter(which has the infor, such as ,date, time, place, floor for the court) with me, so The Judage told me to ask more information in from the Clerk in another office.
I spent 2 hours there, I got nothing. the Clerk double check the computer, and told me that, my court date is 12/10/08, there is no new court date.
But I told him I got a letter can prove that 1/14/09 is my court date.
He signed a paper and which has his name, today's date and time and told me to bring that letter and talk to him again next time.
This obviously is the court's mistake. I double check the letter today, I did came to the right place, right date and time. However, there is no record in their computer.
Can I ask court to dismissed my case, because I present to the court at the date the "letter" said and the officer didn't present. The Clerk can prove that I came to the court. What should I do if this is possible?
If not, will they give me another court date for trail? but the letter said, no future continuances.
Thanks!
