i know it is an error but a common approach and a legal approach are two different things...i'm basiclly trying to figure out if a cop gives you a court date and the date verbaly stated date is different than the written date which one am i held to??
i could understand how in your case it could have been different because may 23rd is may 23 either way you look at it....

i'm somewhat tempted to not go to court day may 25th 2005 and see what they do about it. i'd probably get a bench warrant put out for my arrest but i may enjoy the conversation with the judge something along the perfectly true and legal lines of:
them - you failed to appear may 25th 2005 at 9 am
me - i'm sorry i didn't know i was supposed to be here then, how was i ever to know
them - it said so on your ticket sir
me - could you please show me on the courts copy of the ticket where is says this?

...and then see what happens from here.




a good bit of the time if a small case gets a little hairy the judge will just drop it...i'm thinking maybe i can throw enough shit into the fan to get the case dropped all together.
