Go to court with your card and recommendation in hand, tell the judge you plead not guilty, you do not wave time, and immediately say motion to dismiss based on my protections under prop 215 and SB 420 and present your card and recommendation.

The judge will look at the DA and the DA will say motion to dismiss, the judge will grant it, and you walk out scot free.
