It is highly advisable that you not to bring children to Court if other arrangements can be made. You may be asked to leave the courtroom by the bailiff if your child causes a disturbance, and could risk missing the call of your case. How do I clear my outstanding warrant? The Clear Warrant (Return on Warrant) calendar appearance time has reverted to its original 8:30 a.m. start time (effective July 13, 2026). If you have an outstanding warrant, you must check in at the Criminal Division Clerk's Office Monday through Friday before 8:30 a.m. to add your case to the calendar for a same day 8:30 a.m. Appearance. Late check ins will not be accepted. The clerk will direct you to a specific courtroom where you will respond to the outstanding warrant. The decision to recall the warrant is entirely up to the judge. If you fail to report to the assigned courtroom, your warrant will remain outstanding. If you were released from jail on a bail bond and the bond has been forfeited, you must bring a Letter of Reassumption of Liability from the bonding agency. Your matter will not be placed on the clear warrant calendar without the letter. How do I either advance or extend my court date? Court dates are set by the judge and should not be changed without good reason. If you have an attorney either privately retained or through the Office of the Public Defender, your counsel needs to make the arrangement of changing a court date as they will appear with (or for) you. If you are representing yourself, you may advance a court date by contacting the Criminal unit at the main Hall of Justice. You may submit a written request to have a court date postponed on a misdemeanor, but it does not guarantee a warrant will not be issued for a missed appearance. How do I get back in the DUI program? There will only be ONE referral made by the Court to the First Offender Drinking Driver Program. If you fail to show up and enroll within the specified period of time or if you are dropped from the program for any reason, the Court will not re-refer you to the program. You will be directed to self enroll in the program. This means that if the participant is dropped from the program there will not be another opportunity to obtain a restricted license. The entire program will have to be completed and the participant may then apply for a full license. What is the date of my next court hearing? The daily criminal calendars are available by accessing the Daily Criminal Calendar on this web site. The calendars are posted at 4:00 PM daily. Any changes after 4:00 PM will not be reflected. If you are unable to locate your case, you may contact the Clerk’s Office between the hours of 8:00 AM and noon. What is the result of my modification request? Requests for modification are sent to the judicial officer for decision. Once a decision has been made to either grant or deny your request, you will be sent a written response in the mail, along with any updated orders.
