Suburban Criminal Courts

The Brookdale and Ridgedale Suburban Court locations are open and holding in-person hearings. The only hearings being held remote are the Payable Arraignment calendars.

The suburban courts are responsible for processing all non-felony traffic and criminal cases for the cities in their jurisdictions. They also process all traffic violation tickets, respond to public questions on criminal matters, and provide a hearing officer who conducts hearings on traffic and petty misdemeanor matters. Other types of cases, such as civil, family law, small claims, etc., are not filed in the suburban courts, but are handled in other Court Divisions.
