Tip: It is very important to notify the court clerk that you are present for your court appearance. A failure to notify the court clerk can result in your case not being called.

Come Prepared: It is always a good policy to come to court prepared. Having the court notice in court is advisable. It will help the court ascertain the most important information about your case quickly.

A driver should also bring their driving record to court. If the record is clean, it can be persuasive and help mitigate the situation.

Dress Code: Although there is no official dress code enforced, we highly recommend all litigants dress neatly and always conduct themselves in a respectful manner. Many judges frown upon those who are dressed in shorts, open-toe sandals, tank tops, or other similar items.

Trial: Each motorist is entitled to a trial on his or her traffic matters. In general, a traffic trial will occur on the driver’s first court appearance. The first court appearance is usually designated as a pre-trial conference.
