Superior Court County Division Room 2 - Criminal Division
The Criminal Division of County Court, Room Two handles traffic matters and criminal cases ranging from Class A, B, & C misdemeanors to Class D felonies. It is very important that a person charged with a crime appear in court on their scheduled date and time. If you have been charged with a misdemeanor or felony and fail to appear a warrant may be issued for your arrest. If you fail to appear on a traffic matter then your license will be automatically suspended until such time as you appear in front of the court and the judge grants reinstatement. It is a defendant's obligation to keep the Court advised of a current address at all times.
The costs that you will be required to pay if you are found guilty of an infraction or a crime are as follows:
Infraction |
$135.50 |
Class A, B, & C misdemeanors or a Class D felony |
$185.00 |
