Q: My ticket has no case number and couldn't find it in the court website too. do i still need to attend my court hearing?
I got a ticket for not MOVING OVER. I am not aware of this new law. I was less than a quarter of a mile to my exit and was not safe to change lane due to moving traffic. I check my summon and there is no Case Number written on it. I also checked the court website and could not find my case either. What should I do? Am I still required to attend to my hearing?
A: You should go to court on the date and time you were summonsed. It is possible the ticket has not been processed into the system yet. If you do not appear, you will not be able to fight the ticket. If you show up and it is not called, then you can speak to the clerk to find out what is going on.
