Municipal Court Offers 1st Amnesty Program!

It's true that ‘ you don't get a second chance to make a first impression,’ however, thanks to a new judicial program, offenders will get a second chance to keep their records clear of offenses.

If you have an outstanding failure to appear warrant or missed a court date in the City of Stonecrest, here’s your chance to clear things up. The Municipal Court of Stonecrest will host its first amnesty program to allow individuals to address contempt fees and clear outstanding warrants.

“We encourage anyone who has delinquent court matters to take advantage of this opportunity to resolve cases,” said Mallory Minor, Municipal Court Clerk of Stonecrest.

Individuals who have unpaid citations may visit the Municipal Court of Stonecrest virtually via Zoom on the following dates in June:

Tuesday, June 14, 2022
8:30 a.m. – 11:30 a.m.
Generated ID 925 7123 0102
Passcode 238754 

Thursday, June 30, 2022
8:30 a.m. – 11:30 a.m.
Generated ID 989 5553 8805
Passcode 097785 

Court officials may waive or offer reduced fees for most non-traffic citations. However, previously adjudicated cases are not eligible for amnesty fee rates.

The court will also allow signups for available sessions starting at 8:30 a.m. each day for the same service. Individuals who wish to address penalties and warrants under this program are encouraged to sign up early. 

For information on the amnesty program, open citations, or warrants issued by the Municipal Court of Stonecrest, please email courtinfo@stonecrestga.gov or call 770-224-0200 and ask for Mallory Minor.
