How to Pay Your Fine
Traffic Violations Bureau
As a convenience to the public, the municipal judge has established a violations bureau by the authority of Missouri Supreme Court Rule 37.49. Eligible violations may be paid after the prosecuting attorney has filed a case with the court and prior to the court date listed on the citation.
Paying for a violation through the violations bureau constitutes a guilty plea to the offense listed on the citation. If you wish to contest a citation you must appear in court to do so. Payments for violations are accepted in person or by mail at the address below or online.
