REQUEST FOR COURT
You may enter a plea
of Not Guilty with the court as soon as the citation has been
filed with the court or on your scheduled court date. You may
make your request at the Court Clerk's Office or in writing.
Upon receiving your request, your case(s) will be placed on
a pre-trial docket. At your hearing you will have the opportunity
to:
- Review the complaint filed against
you;
- Meet with the City Prosecutor
to review the merits of your case;
- If you are eligible, the City
Prosecutor may offer a plea-bargain.
You have an absolute right to a trial
and you do not have to accept any Plea Bargain the City Prosecutor
might offer. At your trial, you will be found either Guilty
or Not Guilty. If you are found Guilty, the Jury or Judge will
determine the fine amount.
