Municipal Court

While traffic tickets and other violations heard by Municipal Courts throughout the State of New Jersey are less severe offenses than those heard by higher courts, the consequences of conviction can still adversely affect your life.

Disorderly Person offenses (New Jersey’s version of a Misdemeanor) can carry a jail sentence, and really, any time spent in jail creates a significant impact – by threatening job loss, resulting in lost income, not to mention creating hardship on families.

Some of the more common types of cases heard in New Jersey Municipal Courts include the following

* Speeding

* Reckless and/or Careless driving
* Driving without a license
* Driving without insurance
* Driving with a suspended or revoked license
* Leaving the scene of an accident
* Shoplifting

* Driving under the Influence

* Disorderly Person(s)/Conduct
