I agree, and make sure that you demand the officer to show up. It is just a hunch, you probably have a good deal on the line, if it cost that much to appeal.

Additionally, you should check your state’s constitution, to see just how Traffic Court fits in. In all cases that I am aware of, your trial, once you appeal, should be a new trial. If you have time, try to follow the suggestions by joseph sugarman.
