If an officer can't appear at the appointed time to defend or prove his charges, then the charges should be dismissed. If they are not dismissed then the court and the judicial system as a whole fails us! The person charged should also be reimbursed for the financial losses imposed on him for his appearance, but I wouldn't hold my breath waiting for that to happen. Expense reimbursement is not a two way street!
