Court Tips & Useful Information
Court Tip: Most traffic tickets are heard on Friday
mornings. Cases are first
conferenced with the Village Prosecutor and go before the Judge for the
approval of the proposed disposition. Cases are called by the judge in the order that they are
conferenced. The judge has the power to reject a negotiated plea. In such a situation, the case will
either be adjourned for trial or sent back to re-conference with the
prosecutor.
After seeing the judge, all fines are expected to be on the
same day. Payment can be paid at
the clerks office located on the 1st floor.
Court Tip: On
Fridays, both criminal and traffic court tickets are adjudicated. In general, the criminal calendar takes
priority over civil and traffic cases.
As such, it is good to know that there could be a long wait before a
driver sees the judge.

adjacent to the Police Department.
Its mailing address is 350 N. Main Street, in Port
