Traffic Tickets in Allegany County
If you received a traffic ticket in Allegany County, the ticket will be scheduled to be adjudicated in a local Justice Court. These courts are also known as town or village courts and are spread throughout the county. Most traffic violations originate on the Southern Tier Expressway (I-86/NYS-17). Other important routes in the county are NYS-417, NYS-305, NYS-21, and NYS-19.
Some towns or villages have very small populations and do not have any major roads going through its jurisdiction. The courts in these towns are also very small, with no staff and often no permanent courtroom. Sometimes they conduct their court proceedings in a neighboring town court along with the other town’s court proceedings. It can be very hard to get in touch with these courts and get information.
If you were passing through Allegany County and got a traffic ticket, you have a few options. Option 1 is to plead guilty and then have the judge impose a fine. This is perhaps the simplest option but also the most expensive. The fines and fees can be costly. Then you would have to deal with the higher insurance rates once that violation hits your driving record. Option 2 is to fight the charges. This is our recommendation. If handled properly, the charges can be dismissed entirely with no points and no fine. You would not have to appear in court at all. Your ticket can be fought whether you were or were not speeding and whether you do or do not have a defense to charges.
