I received a ticket from a police office in Ohio. The court summons date was mistakenly noted as 2/20/2006 on the ticket. 2/20 is Presidents day and the court is closed. Will the ticket automatically be dismissed?
Answer 1 :
No. It will not be dismissed. You go to court on Tuesday morning and get it sorted out. If you don't, the court could suspend your driver's license for failure to appear. When you are in court, you can ask the judge to dismiss the ticket.
Answer 2 :
You have got to be kidding. Dismissed because the officer mistakenly wrote down a date that is a holiday. The clerk at the court will likely notify you of the correct date. But you should go ahead and call the court to find out when your resceduled date is.
Answer 3 :
What will probably happen is that the court clerk will notice the error and your case will be given a continuance to the next available session.
Sorry, you're not going to be able to get off on this (a technicality, at best)
No it won't be dismissed. If you're lucky, they will just postpone the court date to the next day. Call the court to check. If you miss the court date, no matter if the date printed on the ticket is worng or not, you may lose your license.
