Invalid Court Date

I recently got a speeding ticket from a New Jersey State Police officer. I intended to plea not guilty and so I made some arrangement with my employer to take a day off on the court date written on the ticket. When I called the court, the court clerk told me that the court date was a holiday and schedule my court appearence on another date. Now I have to make another work arrangement in order to go to court. I think it is not fair. Any suggestion?

Yes, show up on the scheduled day.

Court resets and continuances are not sufficient to warrant a waiver of the ticket.

What makes me mad is that why didn't the officer know it was a holiday? I thought that the police combines all tickets issued by the officer on a single court date. If they plan their court date, they should have known.

Plead guilty and pay the fine by mail and avoid going to court if you can.How do you intend to beat a speeding ticket?Also if they reschedule your court appearence you should be notified in writing.Otherwise show up for court.
