Legal Question in Traffic Law in Georgia

Your call to the city court clerk was inappropriate and a bad idea, and may have been reported to the judge. A clerk has NO authority over the ticket. You post frankly makes it clear that you are going to do harm to your case. You have a city and not a county case. There are ways, if you choose, to compel a transfer of the case to the county. That is done in court and may in some cases be very smart (or very foolish). The long term consequences of a ticket are not just fines and points, but years of increased insurance. You need a lawyer. You will need to discuss (1) if you have defenses, (2) which court the case should be in, (3) whether you want a jury or nonjury case, (4) whether you should look into pretrial negotiations with the prosecutor to reduce charges or do pretrial diversion.

Clerks CANNOT change a ticket. Prosecutors and judges can. Your call, if known, and since you just advertised it here on the internet on a site where local prosecutors read (bad move), may lessen chances of negotiating a better disposition.
