I went through the same thing in Texas a few years back. Ticket had wrong date and time on it. I got a lawyer and went to court. The first two times the cop didn't show but the judge rescheduled and wouldn't consider throwing it out. The last time the cop showed up but the DA and the judge said what was written on the ticket is pretty much irrelavent as the cop (or somebody) enters the "real" information into a computer later and that information is what they use. Long story, I paid for the lawyer which did nothing to help me and I took a defensive driving course which ironically, cost the exact same as the ticket's original fine. Hmmm....
