How Do I Find My Court Date?
A.
It depends on what kind of case you have, but generally the best way to
find out is to call the court clerk in the county in which you have the
citation.
For most California traffic tickets (citations), the date for the Arraignment (first court date) is listed on the citation at the bottom (ticket).
A ticket is also known as a Promise to Appear, and by signing it, you are promising to appear in court on the date listed on your ticket. For this reason, it is important to read a ticket carefully, and to keep it in a safe place for future review. The court may change your date later, so you should contact the court clerk to verify the date.
For most Nevada counties the ticket is prepared on an official form, with a court date listed on the bottom of the citation. When you sign a citation with a court date listed, you are promising to appear in court on that date.
In some, but not all, counties, you can look up a traffic court case or criminal case on the court's web site in the "On-line services" section. Try using our FREE Warrant search page for looking up the details.
