This doesn’t sound too ridiculous, except for all the pseudo legal magic. Without the threshold and “well I don’t plead” stuff, I can see the rest of it being plausible. If the judge was having a good day and didn’t want to put up with it, I can see him ignoring the guy’s made up legal theory. At its core what this is is a guy saying he didn’t do a traffic infraction, and the judge letting him go when he swears it.
And then everybody stood up and clapped but first they made sure not to cross the threshold and have their 55-c form ready.
