That's the manual I was trying to think of. Randy Lee and those guys were quoting it about boxes being for superfluous and explanatory matter.

Can't manage to find any border encompassing the entire citation I'm looking at issued by LAPD.... just lines. Only box outstanding is the one which says inside in all caps WITHOUT ADMITTING GUILT, I PROMISE TO APPEAR AT THIS TIME AND PLACE INDICATED BELOW.

That is the contract. Any boxes within that box would be superfluous and explanatory matter. Before signing strikethrough the agreement to appear and be done with it.
If you are a court of competent jurisdiction you have a reasonable amount of time to change your mind by Refusal for Cause. Three days "72 hours" according to the UCC (but do not cite that code). I tell suitors that you have not decided to R4C until the papers are properly executed. Here is the sample clerk instruction for the district courts of the United States found inside the Libel of Review:

Read that carefully and you may see how it works. If a blue suited agent of a foreign principal with a revenue cause offers to contract on the side of the road the suitor has a pre-established evidence repository in the cognizance of the United States. A copy of the clerk instruction advises the chief of police (presenter's principal) that a copy of the R4C is filed in the US Courthouse with the original clerk instruction. The signature should be in true name (no last name) and with a court seal - usually the red thumbprint.
[For a cheap process server get the Registered Mail stamps in advance so you can type the numbers into the document. Have the clerk check accuracy and verify by rounddating all six of the Registered Mail numbers. Buy .90 (certificate of mailing) stamps for each document, including your copy and have them all cancelled. The clerk is over 18 and not interested in the case. You are the court of competent jurisdiction so decide for yourself if this is proper proof of service. Especially if you have a Return Receipt too.]
One suitor simply wrote "Refusal for Cause" across the ticket on the clipboard and handed it back to the officer. After a few minutes the officer returned to the car. He had written out another identical ticket! The officer snuck up to the open window and stuffed the defendant's copy into the car and ran off. The incident led to a gunpoint altercation where the agents of the Bank were compelled to dredge up the past R4Cs and ignore them. Well they tried for a while during the booking process. I advised moving for a probable cause hearing and the initial R4C would get on the record (hire your own court reporter; you are the court of record. Traffic court in Colorado is a court not of record). The clerk said they do not give probable cause hearings for trivial matters (even if there were guns drawn the matter is trivial (misdemeanor)). So the fellow served his own order and decree.

court of record
You may note that this deal was complicated by past R4C's being over two counties. This suitor is still walking free but knows never to antagonize the initial agent. With the proper evidence repository (cognizance) in place, there is no excuse to prod the officer into going postal. Sign it and blow $25 on the refusal if that is worth it to you ($12 for each Registered Mailing). A couple of the cowboy agents and a neighbor with an unleashed dog complaint continually try to perfect process against the man. Definitely not worth it to deal with the agent who feels the ticket is mandatory.
If this seems a little off point, consider it a caveat with my advisement you can just strikethrough the contract. One suitor did this and the officer just said he was notified anyway that he had to appear. The suitor responded he would be appearing restricted through the district courts of the United States. But the contract was on the paper, not verbal. So there was never a promise to be a defendant. It took a while but they returned his car too:

P.S. Note the last paragraph of the Order and Decree. The district attorneys and the principal attorney general are required to file their oaths within thirty days of taking office or the office is vacant. This intrepid suitor went to the secretary of state to get oaths and was first told they no longer give out Certificates of Fact for officers who fail to file. Meaning they were afraid of John Suthers suing them. But he went back the next day to find this:

The office of attorney general is vacant in Colorado state. Suthers took almost 90 days to file his oath. See Article XII, Sections 9-10.
