Airmont is a municipal village located within Rockland
County New York. It’s court is
located adjacent to Village Hall at 321 Route 59, Airmont, NY 10982. It is a short distance from the Ramapo

How do I handle a
traffic summons?
When a driver is issued a speeding ticket from a New York
State Trooper, they have 48 hours to file an Answer by mail.
When a driver fails to file a timely Answer, their prvilege
to drive can be suspended by the Department of Motor Vehicles.
How is an Answer
filed?
An Answer can be filed by following the instructions on the
ticket. We recommend that a driver
check off box B and enter a plea of not guilty. The plea or Answer can be filed in person or by mail. If it is filed by mail, we further
recommend that it is done by some form of return receipt requested.
If I want to file
the Answer in person, where do I go?
The Answer is filed with the court.
What happens after
the ticket is Answered?
If a driver enters a plea of not guilty, they will receive a
letter in the mail advising them to appear in court for a Pre-Trial
Conference. Conversely, if a
driver enters a plea of guilty, they will receive a fine letter with the amount
to pay.
I cannot make the
pre-trial conference, what should I do?
If a driver hires our law firm on a standard moving
violation (speeding ticket, stop sign violation, et.), they will not be
required to appear in court. Our
clients will execute a waiver and authorization which gives us the power to
appear in court without them being present.
If a driver is appear pro-se, they can requests for adjournment with the clerk
of the court. It is the courts
preference that a request to adjourn be made in writing and made at least seven
days prior to the court date.
Note, an adjournment is a courtesy granted by the court. A request to adjourn can be denied.
I failed to Answer
my ticket and I received a notice of suspension from the Department of Motor
Vehicles. What can I do to prevent the suspension?
When a driver fails to Answer, the DMV usually sends a
warning letter. It will have a
date in which the driver will need to file an Answer or their privilege to
drive will be suspended.
My privilege to
drive has been suspended for failure to Answer, how do I get my license back?
A view of the entrance into Airmont Village Court |
A driver can get their license un-suspended by calling the
court and paying the appropiate fees.
The suspension lift fee is $70.00 per ticket. Sometimes, the court may require a driver to pay a bail on
top of the suspension lift fee.
Once case is
resolved, do I get my bail back?
Yes. Bail is
used to secure a driver’s appearance in court. Most drivers will use their bail to help pay any fines at
the end of the case.
