Trials

  • Issue a warrant for your arrest on criminal citations;
  • Take Action to suspend your driver’s license; and/or
  • Pursuant to ORS 153.102, determine guilt or innocence without your presence and, if found guilty, impose sentence, which may include a fine in excess of the presumptive fine amount on violation citations.
