I got arrested for driving with a suspended license.?

I got arrested for driving with a suspended license. It was due to an out of state ticket. I got this ticket while going to a cousin's wedding in Indiana; I was going from Chicago to New York. Police officer told me that I would get the ticket in mail in less then a month. I was in rent a car at night. I forgot the receipt in rent a car and forgot where I got that ticket. After a month I went to the court and ask them to see if I have received any ticket and they said that there is not ticket on your record. So they told me that the best thing is that I should update my address and we will give you a notification a month ahead before we suspend your license. I did what they said. I got this ticket in 6/25/2010. In NOV I moved to a neighbor city due to my job and re routed all my letters. I was arrested on Sunday 27feb2011 and they told me that my license suspended in JAN and they sent me a notification in DEC. they arrested me and I had to pay $500 for my car and $80 for the towing and now $70 dollars for the reinstatement fee for my license. I am thinking of pleading to get my money back and take the suspension off my record. Anybody knows if I stand a chance. Let me know what do you guys think. At the time of ticket I lived in Decatur IL and then I moved to East Peoria IL in NOV. Got arrested in East Peoria IL.
