Legal Question in Traffic Law in New York

is what is on the ticket the only charge you are in court for?

Can you be charged by the Judge with another violation than what you were ticketed for? Officer stopped me for speeding, however I was issued a fix it ticket for unlawful speedometer. I have taken car to the repair shop and have submitted the paperwork to the court. Thank you.
