TRAFFIC COURT

Juveniles charged with traffic infractions are heard by the Juvenile and Domestic Relations District Court.  Certain violations called prepayable traffic infractions may be prepaid at the Clerk's Office if prepayment is permitted by the chief judge, and if the juvenile wishes to plead guilty and not contest the charge.  Accidents involving juveniles are not prepayable.

If prepayment is permitted, the Clerk's Office should be called to find out the fine and costs and information where to mail or deliver the signed waiver of trial form (on front of summons) with the fine and costs.  If prepaying by mail, the yellow summons should be signed by the juvenile and a parent or legal guardian and the signature must be notarized. 

A parent or legal guardian must accompany juveniles to Court.
