All traffic tickets issued by the Norwalk
Police Department are processed through
Norwalk Municipal Court.
If you have received a ticket and have been cited in Norwalk Municipal Court
you can opt to take one of two routes...
First check the bottom and back of your
citation and make sure the "APPEARANCE REQUIRED" box is not checked by the
officer. If it is YOU MUST APPEAR IN COURT.
If the box is not checked then you may choose to do either of the following:
If you feel that you DID
commit the offense that you are charged with on the citation, you will find
the amount on the back of your citation copy and then mail the fine along with
the signed guilty waiver that is on the back of your copy of the ticket to the
court. You may also pay the waiver at the court if it is open, or the
Police Department after hours. You must pay with cash (exact change) or
check.
-or-
If you feel that you DID NOT commit the offense that you are
being charged with or there are extenuating circumstances, on the bottom of your citation, the officer wrote in a
date and time where you can appear at Norwalk Municipal Court. At that time
you may enter a plea of Guilty, No Contest, or Not Guilty to the offense and have the matter set for
a Pre-Trial.
