Court is held at 4:30 pm and 5:30 pm.  You are only on one docket.  Your time should be on the front of your citation.  Trials are scheduled at 5:00 pm on the date assigned by the court.  If you still need assistance, please call the Court Clerk at 405-390-3333.  

2. How do I plead Not Guilty?

To plead not guilty you may be required to post a bond before your arraignment date to have a trial.  The cost to post a bond includes the amount of your citation.  Please contact the Court Clerk to discuss the options available if you do not have the resources to post a cash bond.

The type of charge determines whether or not you must appear.  Please contact the Court Clerk at 405-390-3333 for appearance requirements.

The court will usually allow one continuance.  After the first continuance you may be required to post a bond.  

5. If I am in jail in another jurisdiction on my court date, what happens?

You can have someone post a cash bond on or before the court date and a new date will be issued.  Otherwise a warrant will be issued for Failure to Appear.  

6. I failed to appear in court, now what happens?

There will be a separate charge of failure to appear which will result in additional fines and costs.  A warrant may be issued and your driver’s license could be suspended.  If you have a valid medical excuse or documentation of being incarcerated, bring documentation to court.  If you are arrested, you may be required to post a bond in order to be released from jail.
