1. Pay the fine amount on the ticket, return your copy of the ticket with your signature on the reverse side. If you elect this option, you are entering a guilty plea to the original charge, waiving your right to a trial and all of the points will be recorded on your driving record.
2.Receive a written plea offer from the town prosecutor via e-mail. If you elect this option, you must e-mail the Court at mdavis@townoflyons.com. If you are eligible to receive a written plea offer, the prosecutor will e-mail you directly. If you are not eligible to receive a written plea offer via e-mail, the Court will let you know.3

Proper court etiquette will be expected, including appearing in appropriate clothing. You should be in a location where you can hear the Court.

If you fail to handle your case via any of the above listed options, the Court will note your failure to appear for court.
