罪状認否 (日语译arraignment）

第一次出庭是问你认不认罪，如果你不认罪，排一个庭审日期。如果认罪，法官可以直接判刑。对于交通罚单当然无所谓，但是其他罪行，根据你的认罪法官可以直接判拘留或者罚款。第二次出庭才是庭审。你这个情况，应该是plea not guilty during arraignment，ask for court trial.

Arraignment is a formal reading of a criminal charging document in the presence of the defendant to inform the defendant of the charges against him or her. In response to arraignment, the accused is expected to enter a plea. Acceptable pleas vary among jurisdictions, but they generally include "guilty", "not guilty", and the peremptory pleas (or pleas in bar) setting out reasons why a trial cannot proceed. Pleas of "nolo contendere" (no contest) and the "Alford plea" are allowed in some circumstances. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arraignment
