Re: Notice To Appear
You are not the plaintiff. You must appear in court only if you get a subpoena to appear in court.

Re: Notice To Appear
You are the "Complainant", or sometimes the "Victim", the city or state is the plaintiff.
You don't have to appear unless you have been served with a subpoena. This seldom happens unless the case goes to trial. 95% don't.
