This service resolved an unjustly given ticket by cops who belonged in the movies.

 Trial by Declaration(TBD) FAQ

Traffic School FAQ

With TBD, you do not have to go to court. Officers do not receive extra pay to do the extra paperwork required for Trial by Declaration, and when they do not submit the declaration on time, the court automatically dismisses your case. It is also easier to fully present your defense compared to a court trial. Additionally, with TBD you have 2 chances to win, instead of just one, in a court trial. You can still request for traffic school even if you lose the TBD, and the court will usually allow it.

Ticket Ninja prepares each TBD defense by hand and we do not use any automated software to generate the TBD defense. Each TBD defense is custom made based on the information you provide to us. If anything is not clear, we will contact you personally and get additional information from you, before we finalize the defense paperwork.

Once we have finished preparing your TBD paperwork, we will send it to you by email attachment, with full instructions on how to send the paperwork to the court.

You just need to print it out, sign it, and mail to the court with the bail payment.

On the average, it will take about 2 to 3 months, for the court to send you a Notice of Decision letter.

Once you have received the Not Guilty verdict on the TBD, there is nothing more you need to do. The court will send out a refund check for the full bail amount to you in about 60 days and you will have no points on your record and no need to do traffic school.

Many courtesy notices will not mention TBD, or they are written in such a way that many people will think that they are not eligible to use TBD. As long as your ticket is not a midemeanor ticket(DUI, wreckless driving, etc), by California law you may use TBD. Even for over 100 mph tickets, you can still use TBD, as long as you ask for TBD at the mandatory appearance.

It is sad that it seems that many courts actively discourage people from using the Trial by Declaration process. However, this is understandable given that this process requires a lot more paperwork and manpower for the court to administer.

You are eligible for traffic school once every 18 months.

Even if you lose the Trial by Declaration(TBD), you may still request traffic school, and usually the court will allow it.

The judges will have discretionary powers to allow you to take traffic school and they will often do that, if you make a request.

The court fee for traffic school will be around $60, payable to the court.

Online traffic schools typically charge around $10 to $20. They are very easy to find on the internet.

Using traffic tickets as a vehicle for collecting infrastructure and service revenues is an incentive for law enforcement to be especially zealous in their collection activities, contributing to conflicts in the field and disrespect for the law in general. It encourages illegal quota systems, raises suspicions about police motives and shifts law enforcement away from more serious crime fighting and prevention.
