going to court

I'm confused. Here, when I've gone to court I've first spoken with a prosecutor for the state. Obviously dress nice as everyone has told you but don't over-do and go looking like a tool. Business casual is good. Just be honest. You can sugarcoat a little. Remember, they will have a copy of the police report and that may say something totally different than your depiction of it. Make eye contact and don't show fear. Don't kiss ass too much either. Just keep it real.
