Traffic Arraignment Calendar The Court generally allows remote appearances in Traffic Infraction and Misdemeanor cases (this does not include Driving Under the Influence cases) without judicial approval. However, for trials, remote appearances are not allowed. Before appearing remotely, be sure to read the traffic Advisement, linked below. Note that you may only schedule a remote appearance for hearings on calendar in the next 30 days. If you try to schedule less than 15 hours before your hearing, you will see a “no valid events” message in red when searching for your case and you will be unable to schedule your remote appearance.

Schedule Now PREPARING FOR YOUR REMOTE APPEARANCE Confirm you received the link to connect the day PRIOR to the hearing. Pursuant to the Court’s Local Rules, remote appearance links WILL NOT be provided the same-day as your hearing. Prepare in the same way you would if appearing in person. Dress appropriately. Think about your background. It is highly recommended that you be located indoors with limited background noise and distractions. It is highly recommended to use a headset with a mic equipped. Join the meeting up to 5 minutes early. Prior to connecting, ensure your device (must be equipped with a camera, microphone, and speaker) is compatible with the Court’s remote appearance system by reviewing the FAQs. You can find the technology related requirements to appear remotely in our Remote Appearance User Guide. Please enter both your first and last name when joining the meeting. It is highly encouraged to also include your case number. Your case may not be heard at the time the calendar is scheduled to start. You will be placed in the Virtual Hallway once connected. When you're ready for your appearance, mark yourself as "Ready To Join." The courtroom will admit you into the meeting once it's time for your case to be called. Once your case is called, please unmute yourself and turn on your video. Keep in mind your case may not be called for a few hours. The remote appearance confirmation email you receive will ONLY be valid for the hearing you are scheduled for. The conference link provided to you will not work if your matter is continued or has another hearing set. You will either need to schedule yourself or request a remote appearance for future hearings.

Reviewer note: Composed 2026-10-10 (California T4 Placer build 2026-10-10) from BenchPath custody ca/t4/ca-placer/pages/online-services__remote-appearance-system__remote-traffic-hearings.html (the page as fetched 2026-10-10; 306114 bytes, sha256 cee19c36433ae219d7fe3c75c05c522df54c90003f38d9a72b9188c5e366fc30) with the HTML composer (compose-site.py, the court's own theme): the page's content block (div#block-placer-content inside <main>, the page's article or listing view) - the site header, menus, breadcrumb, the hero banner (which holds only the page title) and the footer lie outside it; each block starts a line and each table cell is set on its own line, row by row; lines the page prints twice stand as printed; chrome removed: 0 items; proof (the multiset of non-space characters equals the container's text less chrome and scripts) passes. Review note: The page lists pay or appear hearings among those a party may schedule without judicial approval; Local Rule 10.24(J)(2) names traffic arraignments and further proceedings.
