I would seek the advice of an attorney.
The officer must be present in court and provide proof that you committed your crime. If he (or the D.A.) has no proof, the case will be dropped. If he has something that the court accepts as proof, be prepared to respond with evidence of your innocence, or ask for more time to get an attorney.
Good luck.

Isn't it hilarious how these braindead drones on this site all believe that you are required to prove your case? LOL. I don't know what to say, really, it's that's bad. Listen, you don't have a prove a damn thing. You are innocent until proven guilty--the burden of proof rests with the prosecution. Millions of people are arrested (or summonsed) and charged with crimes they did not commit every year. Teenagers who don't know any better believe that everytime an accusation is made, it must be true. They believe in rumor-mongering and lies. The government loves them for it, too. They don't want you to know your rights, and it looks like it's working out great!

You need an attorney. Prove your case and file a civil suit against the department. Is there any information missing? Vague but good luck.

Were you driving on the 23rd? Maybe an officer recognized you and sent you a summons?

Maybe it was for a different time. And you just got the summons in the mail.

Answer the summons. Your defenses are that this was not you. Be prepared to back it up with proof though.

Then it should be easy to prove in court and you will not have a problem.
