Hello goons. I feel a bit silly to ask a relatively trivial question in a thread filled with weighty legal conundrums, but here it goes.

I was cited in Arizona, US for 5 miles over the posted speed AND expired registration. The former can be offset by attending traffic school, and the latter can be reduced if I show that I've renewed my registration, which I've done. I don't plan to contest the charges themselves, but there is an uncertainty because the officer wrote down a future date on the citation, July 3, 2010. I called the court and they told me the citation was issued on April 5, 2010, which is impossible because I was at work and could not have been driving at the time the citation was issued. If necessary I can provide evidence for this.

Do I stand much of a chance in court by arguing the date is wrong? I've heard that some cops are allowed to fix administrative mistakes like that in court.

VVVV No, the citation date is July 3, 2010, and the court date is well before that.
