Peoria Court FAQ
This page contains a list of Frequently Asked Questions and answers regarding the Peoria Municipal Court system.
There are four ways to pay for a traffic ticket:
- in person at the Peoria Municipal Court;
- by mail to the Peoria Municipal Court at 10100 N. 83rd Avenue, Peoria, AZ 85345;
- online at Peoria Municipal Court Online Payment Portal
- by credit card over the phone 1 (855) 581-2433
Continuances may be filed with the Peoria Municipal Court but extensions must be requested in writing prior to the court date. To do so, mail, fax or deliver a letter or memo explaining the request to the Peoria Municipal Court, 10100 N. 83rd Avenue, Peoria, AZ 85345. The fax number is 623-773-7407. The request should be printed legibly and include the petitioner’s name, address, phone number and case number.
Extensions are granted only for good cause. Do not assume one has been granted merely because it was requested. If you have not received a new court date, you must appear on the date and time for which you originally were scheduled.
- Court hours are Monday through Thursday from 7 a.m. to 6 p.m., and court clerks are on duty to handle inquiries in person or by phone at 623-773-7400. If a clerk cannot resolve the concern, it may be possible to speak with a judge during “open court,” which is on Tuesdays from 8:30 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. and 1:30 p.m. to 3:30 p.m. Most people who have received traffic tickets are scheduled for open court.
- You can search by name or case number at https://apps.supremecourt.az.gov/publicaccess
- Orders of protection and injunctions prohibiting harassment (sometimes called “restraining orders”) offer protection for someone who is the victim of domestic violence, harassment or stalking. The Peoria Municipal Court and Peoria Police Department have created a brochure to guide people through the process. To learn more, download the brochure “A Guide to Protective Orders” (PDF). If you have additional questions, please call the Peoria Municipal Court at 623-773-7400.

- This court has jurisdiction over criminal misdemeanors, traffic citations, city code violations, orders of protection and injunctions prohibiting harassment. The Presiding Judge is the Hon. George T. Anagnost.
- The initial court date and time that you must appear is written on the bottom of your citation. Please note, for parking citations the initial court date and time that you must appear is written on the top right hand side of the citation. If you are unsure, you may call the Peoria City Court at 623 773. 7400
- You can search by name or case number at https://apps.supremecourt.az.gov/publicaccess.
- If you have been cited for a civil traffic violation, you may pay your fine through the mail or over the phone with a credit card prior to your court date or pay online.
If you have been cited for a criminal violation, you may file for an extension. Court date extensions must be requested in writing prior to your court date. Extensions are not automatically granted. If good cause cannot be shown, the extension will not be granted and you will have to appear on your original court date. - Judges are available Monday through Thursday between 7 a.m. - 6 p.m., excluding the lunch hour. It is not always necessary to see a Judge. Peoria City Court staff can answer many questions but they are not allowed to give legal advice, only general information as it pertains to your case.
- Peoria City Court records are available to the public. Record requests will be accepted at the Court in person, by mail, fax or email. You may fax your request to 623.773.7407 or submit a request to courtrecordsrequest@peoriaaz.gov

- If you want to know about your MVD record, you must contact the Arizona Department of Motor Vehicles at 602.255.0072 or visit https://servicearizona.com.
- All fines/penalties are due on the date they are imposed. If you are unable to pay in full, you may apply for a payment plan and you may be subject to a credit check to determine your ability to pay. If you are granted a payment plan, a one-time fee of $20 will be added to your total fine pursuant to A.R.S. 12-116.
- If you do not pay your financial obligation to the Court, notification may be sent to MVD to place a suspension on your driving privileges (if you are not licensed in Arizona, it may extend to the state in which you are licensed), a hold may be placed on your vehicle registration that will not allow you to renew it, you may be referred to FARE, a collection agency (resulting in additional fees), or a warrant may be issued for your arrest.
Online payment options are now available for cases referred to a collections agency under the FARE Enforcement Program. Make a FARE payment online. - No. If you have any questions regarding a divorce, please contact Maricopa County Superior Court at 602.506.3676 or visit the Family Court website.
