Show All Answers
1.
Am I required to appear for a scheduled court date?
If the citation specifically states "Must Appear," or is checked "Yes," then you must appear when scheduled.
2.
Can I reschedule a court date?
Yes, if the court clerk is notified before the assigned court date, 1 adjournment is allowed by the court clerk. Subsequent adjournments must be approved before the judge.
3.
If my citation doesn't indicate "must appear," what happens if I do not appear?
If served personally, the Municipal Court will find you guilty by default and you will be ordered to pay the forfeiture. If you were served by mail, a warrant will be issued requiring your appearance.
4.
What do I do if I miss my court date?
You must contact the court clerk immediately for instructions on reopening your case at 414-847-2617.
5.
What happens if payment or arrangement to pay is not made by the due date?
If it is a traffic citation, a 2-year suspension of your driver's license is issued for failing to pay. If it is not a traffic citation, a warrant will be issued for your arrest.

Where do I pay a forfeiture?
You may pay by mail with a personal check or money order. Cash, check, MasterCard, and Visa are accepted methods of payment in person at:
