I have to go to court today for a speeding ticket. what do i have to bring?

Question

Its in california and im going cause i have to request payments with the judge for the amount owed. What do i need?

Answer 1

Your citation and a checkbook for the first payment.

Wait a second, you might want to take cash, most courts don't accept personal checks.

Answer 2

The only thing you "need" to take to the court is yourself. Bringing the ticket would be a good idea as well.

However, it is better to be over prepared than under prepared. I would bring documents (pay stubs etc) that show your income and copies of your bills so you can show your expenses. You may not need them, however it will help things along and the judge will be happy you thought to bring them.

Dress nice and be respectful. Always address the judge as "your honor"

Answer 3

a good lawyer

Answer 4

The ticket & the money, They want the blue sheet but take both just in case.
