Can a non sworn officer issue traffic citations?

This depends on the laws of the state where the citation is issued and the nature of the charge. A citation is simply a summons to appear in court to answer to a charge. In many jurisdictions, it can be issued/signed by anyone who wants to bring a charge against another person. In signing the citation, the person making the accusation is swearing to the court that the offense was committed by the person named in the citation, and can be charged with false swearing or a civil claim of false arrest if the charge is baseless.


I got a ticket going 78 in a 55 What are my odds of contesting this in court If the cop doesnt show in CA are you not guilty?

Just because the officer isn't in court doesn't mean your charge will be automatically dismissed. The first time you go to court may be an arraignment date where the officer isn't even summoned to court. If you plead not guilty, he will be summoned for the next court date. If he never shows after a few court dates, then your charge is likely to be dismissed, but by then you've missed enough work to more than pay for the ticket.

If an officer doesn't sign the citation and doesn't leave a badge number can the case be dismissed?

== == You will have to attend on the "court date" and try to have it with-drawn, by the prosecutor, on the basis that the citation is "defective" it it's information. He/she may drop it, or may have the officer re-write another charge on the spot. It will be decided on YOUR past driving record, and YOUR attitude towards the officer at the time you were stopped.


What happens when the cop doesn't list an offense on a ticket?

I'd call, or go to, the officers department and ask to have the ticket withdrawn. If not, when you go to court, ask to have the charge dismissed. However, this may not always be a successful ploy. Many times the judge will allow an officer to 'amend' the citation in court.

What does remand to file mean in the state of Mississippi?

It means that the charge is going to be sent back to the lower court or the agency that filed the charge for reconsideration, along with instructions by the judge for how it should be handled (for example, dismissed because of officer error). Essentially, it means you were not convicted. If the charge is remanded to file, this is NOT a conviction.


How do you clear a dismissed traffic violation went to court case dismissed?

If you went to court and it was dismissed, it's about as clear as it's going to get. If anyone is questioning that go back to court and ask for a "letter of disposition" on this charge.


What if the officer writes the wrong time on the ticket so say an incident occurs after 10 or 11pm and the officer writes 235 pm on the citation is it still valid?

Mistakes likes these are called "scrivener's errors." The court that hears the traffic case will determine whether the error is material to the violation or incidental and not critical. If the error is material to the offense, the citation will likely be dismissed.
