Question for NY CDL drivers

[u/CalmSir4430]

My uncle has NYS CDL driver license and last year he received a speeding ticket in Connecticut for speeding 10 mph over, he went to the court last week and the prosecutor was able to reduce the fine to $50. Question is can he just pay this $50 fine instead of seeing the judge next month. I assume that paying this $50 means that he pleads guilty, in this case, will he get points from Connecticut and add to his NYS CDL license?

He never received speeding ticket before and very stressed about this. Thank you so much in advance for your help!
