FAQ
The success of a trial by declaration mainly depends on whether the officer responds, and the overall success rate (all of California) seems to be about 50/50. It's a little higher in bigger counties where the officer may have been transferred.
One of the most significant drawbacks of a trial by declaration is the inability to cross-examine the officer who issued the ticket. In a courtroom setting, questioning the officer can reveal inconsistencies or errors in their account. These discrepancies can be pivotal, often leading to reduced charges or dismissals.
If the defendant files a Request for New Trial (Trial de Novo) (form TR-220) within 20 calendar days after the date of delivery or mailing of the Decision and Notice of Decision (form TR-215), the clerk must set a trial date within 45 calendar days of receipt of the defendant's written request for a new trial.
Your argument should be clear, concise, and persuasive. State the reasons why you believe you should not have been charged and present any evidence that supports your case. Use specific examples and be as detailed as possible.
