    Can I delay my speeding ticket trial the day of?
    I went to the hearing a few months ago, now there is the trial which I forgot about. I called the administration office today and someone told me I might be able to delay it if I fax an excuse for not being able to attend before the trial tomorrow morning. Would this work?

    Maybe. But don't lie about your excuse.

    Yes, be sure that anything you say can be proved.

    Also if it is tomorrow, why can't you just go ?

    But you will need to ask for it to be continued to a new date.

    If not, of course the court can find your guility and more.

    Besides being found guilty, what else could happen if it is denied?

    They could do a failure to appear warrant, ( the bond will normally be the fine plus costs) it just depends some courts do that, others merely turn it over to collections.
