Attorneys

Attorney Docket

The municipal court holds an attorney docket once each month. Attorneys who have posted bonds or filed letters of representation are set on this docket to speak to the prosecutor. If an outcome is not resolved from this docket, cases are set for a jury trial or a trial by a judge.

When you file notices of representation to the court, please allow the court until the end of business that day to process your request. If you do not receive notice of a court date, please contact the court to verify that your submission was received.

Attorney Bonds

Attorneys who file bonds with the Municipal Court are set on the next available docket. Warrants are lifted once the court receives bonds for defendants in warrant status. Please note that the following information is required by the court for the bond to be approved:

  • Bond amount
  • Citation / warrant number
  • Defendant name
  • Offense description
  • Principle address
  • Principle phone number
  • Principle signature

Insufficient bonds will not be approved, and warrants will remain active.
