This type of citation is a “mandatory-court” citation. These citations and the accompanying police reports are submitted to the Prosecutor for review. The prosecutor may file any charge that he believes is supported by the evidence; he is not bound by the citation. The prosecutor may also decline to file any charge at all.
Although you have received the citation, the Prosecutor has not received the reports. And without reading the reports, the Prosecutor will not act on your citation. Consequently, the Prosecutor will not see any walk-in Defendants.
In addition, if you have received a “money ticket,” the Prosecutor cannot act (absent extraordinary circumstances) on that citation until it is placed on a hearing calendar.
