I had to change my lawyer for my traffic ticket last minute because I was not satisfied with the way that my case was being handled but my trial date is on feb 2. Is there any way that I can postpone the date so that my new council can get disclosure and represent me? Can i just appear on tuesday and tell them that?

I was charged with driving under suspension. I was unaware that my licence was suspended die to an unpaid fine. I wa issued a summons. My question is in regards to the court date. Do I actually go to trial on the date of my summons or do I just go to let them know my intention (plea guilty or not guilty) and set a date for trial. If anybody could let me know that would be great. Also is there anything else I should expect on the day? Can I speak to a prosecutor with regards to a plea bargain? I've hears of many people being offered driving without a licence rather than driving under suspension...
