Registration for this program is now closed. Please see the full listing for upcoming IPE programs. |
This program will provide the nuts and bolts of municipal court practice in New Jersey. Although municipal courts are considered courts of limited jurisdiction, having responsibility for motor vehicle and parking tickets, minor criminal-type offenses, municipal ordinance offenses, and other offenses that occur within the boundaries of its municipality, many serious criminal cases, such as robbery, auto theft, or assault, start out as complaints filed in municipal courts. Attorneys will learn about municipal court operations and procedures, common cases, and how to prepare for appearances and trials in municipal court.
Topics include:
• Overview and Jurisdiction
• Common Types of Offenses
• Pre-trial Procedure
• Plea Bargaining
• Discovery
• Trials
• Sentencing
• Appeals
