I'm waiting on the disclosure, but does the officer that presents the ticket have to sign off or anything that he is doing so?

I was driving home, pulled into my driveway, and a cop parks behind me...gets out and tells me I ran through a stop sign. You guys probably hear this all the time, but I really think I was stopped...anyways... he tells me that it's been in the paper about people complaining that noone stops for that stop sign. He tells me to wait, comes back out and gives me a ticket. The name of the officer on the ticket was not his own, but another female officer that works in our town. She might have been in the passenger seat, I don't know, but still.... Any way I could get out of this ticket for that reas...
