If the officer does not show up and you do, it is likely that the ticket will be dismissed or the court could adjourn and reset the hearing. If you do not show up, a default will be entered against you and you will be responsible for the ticket. You must appear.

See your local district attorney or make a police report. There may be a crime committed. If you do not want to go that far, work with your boss to stop this now before it gets worse and damage is done.

What happened is fairly common. Bond can be set without an arraignment and without the defendant present. There is a right to set a hearing on bond amount if excessive so there is a remedy for a high bond. In state court there will not be a court hearing unless requested until after the Grand Jury hears the case. The defendant can request to plead prior to Grand Jury by requesting a waiver. There is no reason to plead not guilty before Grand Jury as this is presumed because of the constitutional right to be considered innocent until proven guilty. Since there is no court setting until after indictment, there should be nothing on the docket at this time. Hope this helps. Call if you need more information.
