Id be pissed. I had court for something else once and the cop had to leave right after he got there. I had a letter from my lawyer requesting a continuance but when i got called up i told the judge id like to proceed with the case right now. The judge just smiled at me and said i dont think so. I was like 18 and thought they had to try you at your request, i was sooooo excited for a couple minutes.....
