A municipal court usually only has jurisdiction over cases that occur within the boundaries of its municipality.These courts have responsibility for handling motor vehicle offenses, such as illegal parking tickets, speeding tickets, and driving while intoxicated (DWI). They also oversee cases involving minor criminal offenses, such as simple assault, trespassing, and shoplifting.
It is usually best to retain a local attorney for a municipal
court matter since they are most familiar with the schedule and procedures
of a city's municipal court. If you need help, do not hesitate to call my office.
