The paperwork indicates filing a "Certification of Good Faith" if I do not agree with the "Track" of the case, which it gives as 2 and 4.

What is a "Certification Of Good Cause?" I want to file it.

I also may have to file an answer denying it all, attach MY stolen plate police report
In the CIS? and a letter to the court indicating that it was not me that did this.

?
There are so many things wrong in there that reveal that you are in over your head.

1 - A "letter" to the court is NEVER the proper way of bringing anything to the attention of the court.

2 - You don't attach your evidence to an Answer. The time for presenting (and obtaining) evidence starts with the Discovery period.

3 - I don't know what a "Certification of Good Faith" is nor have I been able to find out on the internet.

Bottom line, you need a lawyer.

Going up against a lawyer without one of your own is like taking a rubber knife to a gunfight. You'll be the one to end up on the ground bleeding.

What, or how, do I "file" that? What "form?"
I got a general definition. (see below)
As far as you only having a few days left why haven't you called the court to find out what to file?
-------------
If an extension request does not include a showing of good cause, or if the showing of good cause in an extension request is deemed insufficient, the person requesting may get action denying the extension request but granting the applicant thirty days to overcome the denial by submitting a verified showing of good cause (or a substitute extension request that includes a showing of good cause). This showing may be submitted even if the statutory period for filing the statement of use has expired.
---------------
It seems it is used to request an extension.

Hmmm ... someone went into your backyard, stole your plate, and got into a hit-and-run?

Seems like it would be pretty easy to prove that it wasn't you ... if it really wasn't. Wouldn't they have the make and model of the car who DID the hitting and running? And it's not yours (even though the license plate is)?

OP, really? Why do these awful things keep happening to you? I know you think I am condescending and jerky, but honestly, this is a serious question ...

No one parks a car in the back yard no less such that it ends up with no engine.
If they do they remove the tag.
If you reported the tag stolen it's on a police report.
If it was not reported then ooops.

Right. So I attach my police report to the certification of a good cause right?

Hmmmm. You are right, this all seems very confusing. I Will probably print out an answer form hope it's the right one and then include a letter to the court and I also have to mail it to the plaintiffs I guess.

The beautiful thing? I have no money, so. Indigenous form to the Court, as well.

Mod cut: Orphaned (quoted post has been deleted).

My dilemma is this: Because I am accused, I am now virtually in the position of having to prove my innocence. Yes, I and that fellow that would have my vehicle ready for an engine transplant and halfway through in Newark when I got the surprise of my life with tickets in the mail. And I really don't care if you all believe this or not but I was actually living and working in Boston at the time and really didn't have any way to deal with this stuff which included the filing of stolen police report until sometime after this alleged incident occurred . It should be pretty easy to prove that the person whom the insurance company paid some kind of scam artist because I'm really struggling to understand how $10,000 plus of damage can occur from a rear end collision as it was described on a 2012 Hyundai Elantra. MY problem is that I only have a few days left to respond to this thing and I have no money with which to contact a lawyer.

THESE are my issues. For all we know, some kind of Ford Escort could have tapped this guy and a complete states that he is engaged in the business of auto insurance so he could've just lied and got his car total to get paid. Which is kind of what I think happened. I'm actually the victim understand because I refuse to be held responsible for the illegal actions of another.

This whole thing stinks of a money grab by an office.

Still trying to understand ... it WASN'T just your plate that was stolen, but the dead car from your backyard? And then you got a bunch of parking tickets (what you called "a slew of tickets") that were NOT yours (but I guess were tied to your license plate)? And you PAID them? But you were working in Boston (and the tickets were from elsewhere) but you couldn't PROVE that you were working in Boston? Or would that have been difficult to do, which is why you didn't do it? (Again, that's a serious question -- I have never been in such a position.)

When was the theft? Sounds like you have a police report to prove that. But again, the ticket part is confusing -- tickets were (afterward) assigned to your license plate (which was now on a car that was NOT driven by you) ... and you paid them? But you would have had the police report to show that you no longer had that license plate -- right? So this is very confusing. Can you give us an exact sequence?

You mean indigent, meaning poor.

Indigenous means originating and living or occurring naturally in an area or environment. While that might also apply to you, it's not what gets your fees (if any) waived.

Besides, having no money doesn't stop a judgment creditor from coming after you for the life of the judgment which I think is 14 years in NJ.

But more to the point of this thread, again:

Mod cut: Way off-topic.

1. Vehicle itself was NOT STOLEN. Rear tire, radio, both plates, headlight, grill, as well as distinctive AR-157 American Racing wheels WERE. Seems like someone took notice of my truck! They usually
do Hondas. Old engine with the likely cracked block, half disassembled, was in it up to and including the day it was junked - around June 2016.

The dead car itself sat since around Halloween on forward. I'm ALLEGED to have done shenanigans (by way of my license plate) December sometime. All that in 2015.

A Mack truck could have hit that Hyundai. Mercedes. Isuzu. Ford Explorer. GMC Jimmy. Mercury Mountaineer. Lexus LS400. ANYTHING...

2. "Slew Of Tickets" - I was mailed 9 Moving Violations summonses. My Mom got them, illegally opened my mail, and told me.

- Careless Driving *this the plea offered.. more on that later
DISMISSED:
2. RECKLESS driving
3. LEAVING THE SCENE OF AN ACCIDENT
4. DRIVING WHILE SUSPENDED
5. 39:6B-2 NO INSURANCE
6. Improper Lane Change
7.
Running Red Light
8. Running Red Light
9. Fictitious Plates 39:3-33 I think (?)

Mod cut: off-topic.
