Cesar what that was, is a first appearance notice. The officer only has to show up if you decide to plead not guilty and take it to a trial.
If she isn't there take it to trial.. and get it tried that day. It will get thrown out I have seen it first hand for speeding tickets. Don't let them talk you into setting another date. Unless the officer couldn't be there for a legitimate reason they have to proceed with the trial in which with no officer there is a lack of evidence. This only works for actual court dates, not with appearnce notices.
Things may work differently in your area, ask around.

If it's a summons, which it would be for that charge, then yes you have to be there, but the officer doesn't necessarily that day. The charge you got will be only be dropped if he didn't see you drive in or out of the lot. Did he see you driving at all?
