When do I have to appear for court?
- Any Misdemeanor offense – you must report to court on the date written on the ticket.
- Any Violation offense – The ‘return by date’ on the ticket is not a court date, it is just the date to have your plea entered by. A plea must be entered on the ticket where indicated and returned to the court by mail or in person before the date stated on the ticket. To enter a plea, complete Part A for Guilty or Part B for Not Guilty. Your correct phone number and mailing address are required.
What happens if I plead guilty?
- A guilty plea will result in fines and/or surcharges being assessed. A fine letter will be mailed to you. Please be sure to give us your correct mailing address and phone number.
What happens if I plead not guilty?
- You will receive a court date to appear.
- If you are mailing in a not guilty plea, please allow 4-6 weeks for a court date to be mailed to you.
- You will be required to pay the fines on the day of court.
- The court accepts payments in cash or by credit card.
- If you do not have enough cash with you, you can pay by 3:30 pm.
- If you appear in court and do not pay the fines you will be rescheduled to another court date, where you will have to repeat the procedure.
