Plea and Trial by Mail


What is the name of your state? Rhode Island

I just got a ticket for 31-13-4 (Obedience to devices). I know that I didn't run a red light, and that I DID come to a complete stop before the light and before making my right turn.

But what I'm wondering is where can I obtain information about and the forms for Trail by Mail and Plea by Mail. I've been to the trafficassasination.com website, and they claim to have form templates... but you have to pay for them. Does anyone know where I can get these for free... or at least what information I should be including when entering my plea and requesting a trial by mail?

(Source:Trial By Declaration: Fight A Traffic Ticket Without Going To Court)
9 states do have trial by "mail" available and CA. is one state which does.The Traffic Assassin website is geared towards fighting California Traffic Tickets .
IF Rhode Island did have Trial by Declaration then the information should be on the back pf the traffic ticket and the form should be available with a page of instructions for no fee from a court clerk.

Google---RI Traffic Tribunal - Rules of Procedure
Clicking on the website of the same name
will give details on the Rhode Island court for traffic tickets.
