If I was wrongly given a traffic ticket for “turning right at a traffic sign with a sign that stated no right on red”, what is the best way to fight that in court?

Besides taking a picture of said intersection because when I went back to that intersection the next day there was no sign.

I suggest that you show up in court and state your case the best you can. Potentially the citing officer may not appear in court and if that happens the case against you should end up being dismissed because the key witness against you is not present.
