It's a way to have the Harper Woods City Attorney or Prosecutor review your traffic ticket without having to come to court for a hearing.
You could get your charge changed to one with no driver's license points. And you can do it online rather than going to court!
It's not. There's a real City Attorney and Prosecutor on the other side, making decisions about your case based on the same criteria they would if you went to court in person. It just takes place through this website.
You submit a request online for a reduced charge. If you are eligible, the City Attorney or Prosecutor reviews your request makes the final decision. You get a text or email with the result.
No.
Everyone makes mistakes. If you have a good driving record, the City Attorney and Prosecutor may be willing to give you a lesser charge that does not add points to your license.
Having points on your license can raise your insurance rates, subject you to driver responsibility fees, or result in a suspension of your license to drive.
You have 5 days to admit responsibility and pay the ticket, deny responsibility and request a hearing, or admit responsibility with a written explanation. More information is on the back of your ticket.
It depends on your record and other criteria set by the court and law enforcement. Just enter your ticket information and do a search to find the eligibility criteria. If you are, submit a request. Whether your request is approved is entirely up to the court and law enforcement.
It could mean your ticket is too old, or that you have too many past offenses or open tickets. Try a search. If you are ineligible, we'll tell you why.
Yes. The fine could change based on the new charge. Either way, you are still responsible for paying it.
We will send an email or text as well as update the message on your status page when you come back to the website. Full payment is due within 5 days.
