I ain't a lawyer, but I would think that any summons that fails to identify the specific law or laws alleged to have been violated is, on its face, defective. How can this hypothetical person offer a defense if he doesn't know what law(s) it is that he's alleged to have violated?

Heck, a traffic cop can't issue a speeding ticket without citing the applicable section of the motor vehicle code.
