Please be advised the Court is experiencing delays in traffic citation processing.

As a result, you may not be able to locate your citation when searching in the Court’s database. If your citation is not yet showing in the Courts system, please contact the traffic call center at 951-222-0384 for further instructions. Your citation will not be considered delinquent, and your date to pay and/or appear will be adjusted if your ability to timely remit payment or appear in Court has been adversely impacted by this delay. 

Notice:

The Online Copy Request, Certified Copy Request, and Request Records Search programs will no longer be available as of Thursday, January 16th, at 5:00 PM.

We’re excited to announce that new and improved services are coming soon. Stay tuned for updates!

Where Cases are Heard

Case Hearing Locations

To determine at which court facility your documents should be filed, refer to the list of case prefixes.

Please note that occasionally cases are moved to another region for the convenience of the court or the parties. In those instances, documents should be filed in the court facility where your case is heard - which may be different than the prefix assigned to the case. The register of actions can be reviewed to determine the courtroom or department where your case is heard and the reference guide indicates the facility where each courtroom or department is located.
