I need to change my court date. How do I do this?

You must call the court, 609-654-7589, to request an adjournment. If you need the date changed due to a previously scheduled vacation or work/school conflict, documentation must be provided. No adjournments are granted on the date that you are due to appear. In the case of an emergency documentation and/or a doctor’s note will be required.


Adjournments are not granted for arraignments on indictable matters or first appearances for serious motor vehicle summonses issued for DWI (39:4-50), driving while suspended (39:3-40) or uninsured motor vehicle (39:6B-2).
