Pleas

Notice: Juveniles and minors must appear in person in court with a parent or guardian (C.C.P. art 45.0215). Mailed in pleas or payment of fine will not be accepted.

• If you waive a jury trial and plead guilty or nolo contendere (no contest), you may talk to the judge about extenuating circumstances that you want the judge to consider when setting your fine, but the judge is not required to reduce your fine.

• If you plead not guilty, the court will schedule a jury trial unless you waive that right. If you do, the trial will be before the judge.
• When you make your appearance by mail, the court must receive your plea before your scheduled appearance date.
• If you plead guilty or no contest, you must include a waiver of jury trial.
• If you plead not guilty, the court will notify you of the date of your trial.

If you want to waive your right to trial and pay your fine warrant, you can now do so online. http://www.doxo.com/info/town-indian-lake-court
