I recently got pulled over and got cited for not having a Nevada

and good lecture about the need to get a NV DL.
I plan on going to court. I understand a few things:
(a) This is an "infraction" which is not a criminal case, and not a
civil case. I don't fully know my rights in these proceedings, but I
will assume (and ask you to assume) that they are the same as a
criminal proceeding. I will research and if that's not the case, I
will handle it as such.
(b) I have a NV license plate, my insurance is NV, but I never did
stated how long I lived in NV.
(c) I never did declare NV as my state of residence - in fact, what I
said was precious little. Maybe 3 sentences at most.
(d) I have 30 days after moving to NV to get an NV license.
Given the above facts, it should be clear that the cop has no chance
of proving the "infraction" against me. A NV license plate does not
imply I live in Nevada; neither does NV insurance card (though I doubt
he even noted the insurance state).
Here's my concern: when the fatass gets on the witness stand, he can
freely lie - as cops do daily - and say "He said he's lived in Nevada
for 2 years!" Logically, I cannot retort on the witness stand by
saying "He's lying! I've lived in Nevada for <xxx>" since that would
implicate me as guilty of the crime. So my plan is to not testify on
my own behalf.
But if the fatass worthless piece of shit lies in court - which I am
sure he will - what recourse do I have, if any?
Thanks for reading.
Hell, I got pulled over once for some stupid shit. Handed the cop my DL and
he asks, "How come you have a colorado LP and an Ohio DL?"
"Because that LP is valid for one year. I paid for the thing to use for one
year and I'm going to use it for one year. I have the Ohio DL becauase a
job required it. Now am I not allowed to live in two different states? What
if i decide to go back to Colorado in the fall?"
He just shrugged, handed me my license and let me go.
The only things that really matters, is, the fact the vehicle is licensed,
it is insured and the driver has a valid license. It is only a minor
technicality that says that all items must be from your state of residence.
What if you had two homes in two states? Live in both an equal amount of
time? Are you required to change all items simply because you are in that
particular home that month?
Contest the charge. Request a jury trial. Let's see how fast fatass drops
the charges.
