Hoboken Municipal Court

So I got a 35$ ticket for an expired meter. It was my fault and I just wanted to pay the ticket. On the site they give to do online payments, my ticket was not available. I tried to call, and was making a call every 2-3 minutes from 9-10am. No response. My working/college hours do not allow me to go to the court as they close very early and this is the only way I can contact them. It is now 3 days after the due date of my payment and I still haven’t been able to contact them. Expecting my charge to be increased do to late fees. Unbelievable.

I filed a Consumer Fraud Act complaint with the court today. The staff were nice, courteous and helpful. Tammy, the deputy court administrator, walked me through the process of filing the complaint. Once I finished filling out the form, she determined that there was probable cause and immediately scheduled a hearing date for me.

Horrible staff , very rude and seemd to be angry to be at work . Dind really get good customer service

Seems like the new judge's promotion from prosecutor really created chaos in the summer/fall 2019 procession due to multiple conflicts of interest cases rescheduled to future dates. He doesn't seem well received by the bald judge, who has to deal with all the rescheduled cases and who stood up, murmured something about a recess and just left the courtroom without looking back. The rotating group of prosecutors further complicate the situation. The prosecutor at one point ran over to the nearby police precinct to retrieve a document, leaving everyone waiting. Watching the court procession is like watching an episode of The Office. Probably should have considered the trouble caused ahead of time but maybe they don't care about mass confusion and wasting time. Overall, this court is inefficient, disorganized and not for the people. It's a free for all zoo in there. I recommend that you just pay your ticket to avoid the courtroom experience. In a bureaucracy, the top do what they want and expect others to accept it. People are mere dollar signs and numbers.

I received a ticket in Hoboken for Careless Driving from Officer Dummy Badge 168 Officer I'd 1120. His actions during the traffic was unprofessional. I made a complaint to internal affairs. Evidence and testimony sustained my complaint. After that, I was confident that I was achieve the same result in traffic court. I went to court this evening and won my case. The officer lied about numerous things and the state fumble their words. The judge who presided saw that and dismissed their case. My review is posted to show everyone one thing. If you truly believe you didn't commit a violation, fight it. Don't take the plead bargain from the prosecutor. Don't hire these lawyers who charge ridiculous rates. Just be honest and take pics of the suspected violation area. You don't have to have a good memory if you tell the truth. Now.i avoided 3 points and a high fine. There are good cops and then there is Officer Dummy. He did his walk of shame.
