I'd imagine the cost of the ticket and representation would be the bulk of it. I'd guess costs/court costs are tiny in comparison if levied at all. I wouldn't factor that into your decision.

What did the prosecution offer? It seems odd they would appeal and then offer you a deal where you just reverse your plea to guilty, as it would still ...
