Did not realize it'd expired (thought it was following year). Ticket for this offense says license expiration is 2/28/19. Do I have a case to drop the ticket, since the date on the ticket is not correct (and would indicate license was still valid)? I have since renewed my license (same day,... View More

It's a range of 0-12 months loss of license and $300 to $1000 in fines if it's a first offense. If second then jail. Your chances of getting lowest grade of that range are with an attorney because it's at the discretion of the prosecutor to extend you a deal or not and then the Court to accept it.

They only need probable cause to charge you but they can't testify in court if they didn't witness or observe anything because that's hearsay and they have to prove their case in court beyond reasonable doubt which is much higher standard.
I would like to get an appeal and take this to trial if I could, because I wasn’t really aware what PTI was and I didn’t know that the conviction or charge would still show up as active on my record.

Your best bet is to hire a private attorney to take the case to trial because sounds like the public defender's office doesn't feel that they want to spend their time taking your case to trial for whatever reason. If you have a budget for a private attorney then that's your best bet. Good luck!
