    Default Court Date Mistake: Wrong Info on Notice of Correction

    My question involves traffic court in the State of: CA

    My traffic court date is tomorrow. I have been waiting 2 months to contest the citation. Because it wasn't in the system, the court clerk said I had to wait until the court date listed on the ticket.

    On the actual ticket:

    Date of Violation: 12/13/08
    Court Date: 02/04/09

    I was served a Notice of Correction yesterday- signed by an Officer "declared under penalty of perjury in the state of CA to be true and correct"

    New date should be: 02/17/09

    Obviously, I assumed they were trying to legally correct the court date listed on the ticket. HOWEVER, upon further inspection, the Officer marked the WRONG item to be corrected!! Instead of "Court Date", he marked off "Date of Violation"!!!

    So, he declared to be correct (under perjury) the wrong date of violation, AND did NOTHING to the Court Date.

    When I called the court clerk this morning, the ticket is STILL not in the system! Since she had zero info to base her answer, she suggested going to court tomorrow, 2/4, anyways...

    How annoying! What would you do?! I'm not even trying to get out of the ticket due to a technicality. I can just see myself going to court on the ticket date 2/4... and them saying they have no record of the citation. Ugh! I just don't want to have to take off from work TWICE!

    Should I go on the 4th or 17th??
