How long will i be in court?

Question

i have a traffic violation.

If i arrive in court on time according to the ticket and plead guilty, how long will i be there for? I just wanted to know so i can plan my schedule accordingly. Any help as well as approximations and over estimates will be nice.

Answer 1

Probably no longer than an hour to an hour and a half, depending on how many people are there for the same thing you are.

Answer 2

Well, since it's early in the morning, you have a better chance of leaving on time.  But, it alway's seems like things like that run behind.

Answer 3

This all depends on your last name.. and how many others will be in the court for other reasons..

I went to court for driving with expired tags.. and

I was there for 2 hours..

My last name starts with a Q

and there were alot of people still there from the earlier time court was going on.. My court time was 730.. and there were people still being called from the 6 o'clock docket!

Also.. if i would have paid the ticket before hand, I wouldnt have had to go in to court..

Check with your courts jurisdiction to see if you can pay without having to appear..

If you have court like tomorrow I would get up there early in the morning and see if they will allow you to pay so you dont have to attend the court proceedings
