Old the thing is your fist court date is an arraignment were you plead guilty or not guilty. Cop don't have to be there for that. 2nd one is mostly for the DA to prove that he has enough to move to trail (thats where discovery comes in and he has to share with you or your lawyer his evidence). Both sides normally can present evidence to show why it should go to trail or be dismissed (the ticket itself is written testomoney and is presented as evidence). The cop only has to be available to you at trail. At that point you do get to face your accuser. So if you get to face your accuser means you have several days in court and missed work. Sorry but that's not broken just cause they are making sure everyone is treated fairly under the law. I'd like to know how it's fair for you to get out of a ticket cause a cop fails to shows up at an arraignment yet I get fined because he shows up for mine. It's an arraignment, not a trail. The judge is supposed to allow you to plead and see if the DA wants to proceed. That's it. No testimony allowed for a simple traffic ticket so why on earth should the cop be there? Just because it's inconvenient for you to pay a fine for breaking the law? I haven't had a ticket in years and only went to court on 2 of them. I did beat them both and that was back in the 70's. I went through the whole 9 yards both times, both in KS, one in a small town the other on Ft Riley. Every other ticket I've gotten I've known I was wrong and just paid the fine. Some call that accepting responsibility for your actions. I haven't had a ticket sense the early 80's cause I now obey the traffic laws.
