[quote=Anonymous]All of that is bad advice.  And not what happens.

Follow the directions on the ticket to contest it.  Likely that involves calling the Court and getting the hearing date.  Take notes so you do not forget the date and time.  Make arrangements so you can go with your kid.

Arrive 30 minutes or more early.  Bring masks.   Check in with the clerk at the traffic window.  Go to the hallway area outside the Courtroom will the hearing will take place.  Outside of the assigned courtroom there will be an office/conference room.  There will be an Asst. Prosecutor there with all the files for the cases up that day - including your kid’s file.  Get in line outside the office.

What will happen is that the Asst. Prosecutor will say come in, and talk to your kid.  You are a spectator unless asked.  Basically your kid should tell the Asst. Prosecutor the cop told him to come and contest the ticket.  This will tell the prosecutor that it is no big deal.  The prosecutor will then say - he/she can offer to plead it to whatever they are using there as a civil infraction with no points and no moving violation.  Say thanks.  Shake hands.  Go pay the fine.  Done.
