Municipal Court

Jurisdiction

The Municipal Court has jurisdiction over violations of City Charter provisions and City Ordinances. Court proceedings are governed by City Ordinances, Colorado Municipal Court Rules, and Colorado State Statutes. Court employees are not allowed to give legal advice, but will be happy to answer procedural questions.

The Municipal Court handles various types of traffic and criminal violations. Many of the traffic violations are payable prior to Court, but most criminal violations require an appearance in person before a Municipal Judge. Citations involving an animal are considered criminal violations.

Please note that Drivers License, Registration, License Plate, and driving under the influence (DUI) related offenses are all handled by the Teller County Combined Court. You may contact them at 719-689-2574 or visit the Colorado Judicial Branch website.
