5. Can I show my Proof of Insurance at the PD and not have to go to City Court
Possibly. If you had valid insurance at the time of the stop/citation, you may show proof to select departmental personnel who have been given authority by the city judge to accept proof.
The City Judge has granted authority to the Chief of Police, both Administrative Captains and Records Clerks to view and accept proof of insurance. Any companion charge will need to be satisfied at that time.
Example- You are stopped for speeding and at the time of the stop you have current insurance but have no proof in your possession. You may bring your proof of insurance by the Greeneville Police Department prior to the court date and show it to one of the approved personnel and have that charge dismissed. The speeding citation will need to be paid. If you desire to go to court and contest the speeding citation, both the speeding and insurance citations will be disposed of in court together.
6. How can I reschedule my court date
You have to either speak to the officer that wrote the ticket or attend court and ask the judge
