Court code

Your DMV court code

A DMV court code tells the DMV and your traffic school which court holds your case, so your completion reaches the right file. Butte County has one code, 04100, and it belongs to the North Butte County Courthouse at 1775 Concord Avenue in Chico, where the court's Traffic Division works.

Juvenile traffic is heard at the Butte County Courthouse in Oroville, which has no separate code on the DMV list. Before the final exam, Mirai Traffic School asks you to confirm your court and its code, and for an adult Butte County ticket that is code 04100 wherever in the county you were cited.

Your case

Find your case, then ask for traffic school

Finding your case

Your citation and courtesy notice carry what you need. The front of the citation shows the citation number, the agency that wrote it, the violations and where they happened, the officer, and the place and date you promised to appear. The courtesy notice, mailed to the address on the citation, adds your case or docket number, the bail, your traffic school eligibility and any proof of correction the court needs.

The court's traffic page links its Case Information page, which opens a Case Search of non-confidential cases, traffic included, with no account needed. Butte case numbers since 2016 start with a two-digit year and a case type, TR for traffic or CI for a criminal infraction. If no notice has come, call the Traffic Division at (530) 532-7005. You do not have to wait for your appearance date to contact the court.

The court's traffic page

How to ask for traffic school

Your courtesy notice tells you whether Butte County Superior Court finds you eligible and how to ask, and the court's traffic school page explains the rest. You ask by paying the court a non-refundable traffic school fee along with the bail, and the notice and that page show both amounts. Paying the bail alone is not a request for traffic school. The court calls that a bail forfeiture and reports the conviction on your driving record.

Ask before the appearance date on your citation.

Your citation

From citation to certificate

What the court does with your ticket, and what Mirai Traffic School does for you.

From citation to certificate in Butte County

What Butte County Superior Court does with your ticket, step by step:

  1. 1

    You receive a citation

    Read the front and back of the citation, and the courtesy notice when it reaches the address on the citation. A missing notice does not excuse the ticket, so contact the court by the appearance date either way.

  2. 2

    You check the court's rules

    Butte asks for a valid driver's license and a Vehicle Code infraction. The clerk cannot grant traffic school if you attended within 18 months of the violation date, the violation involves alcohol or drug possession, it carries more than one point, or you failed to appear. A driver cited in a commercial vehicle may not attend.

  3. 3

    You ask the court

    Before the appearance date, ask the way your courtesy notice describes and pay the fee and bail the court sets. The notice and the traffic school page show the amounts.

  4. 4

    You finish a licensed course

    The court gives you a traffic school due date. Mirai Traffic School is licensed by the DMV as E0756 and costs $24.99, and each school charges for its own course.

  5. 5

    The court receives your completion

    The school sends the completion certificate to the court. Finish by the due date and the court reports a confidential conviction to the DMV. Miss it and the court keeps the fee as forfeited bail and reports the conviction.

Questions

Frequently asked questions

What drivers ask about Butte County Superior Court.

The statewide rules

This court, not the school, grants traffic school under Vehicle Code section 42005, and you pick any DMV-licensed school. A completed course keeps one conviction in 18 months confidential under section 1808.7. Read the full statewide rules on our California traffic school rules page.

Your citation cannot be resolved without going to court, and court staff cannot move the date. If time allows, you may be able to appear earlier, and the Traffic Division at (530) 532-7005 can tell you how. The court's FAQ lists charges such as minor in possession of alcohol and littering that may need an appearance.

An officer who enforces the Vehicle Code signs the back of your citation or courtesy notice. A licensed station can certify brake, lamp, smog device and muffler repairs. The DMV can certify license and registration violations, or you can show the valid document to the clerk. For insurance, send a copy of the policy or the insurer's identification card.

Adult traffic cases go to the Traffic Division at the North Butte County Courthouse in Chico, wherever in the county the ticket came from. Juvenile traffic and infraction matters are heard at the Butte County Courthouse in Oroville. Your courtesy notice names the court that has your case.

Ask for a court trial by mail or in person before the appearance date on your citation. Counter staff may set the trial date without a hearing first, and the court tells the officer to appear. Someone other than you must serve any subpoena. For an infraction the court appoints no lawyer, but you may hire one.

Yes, for Vehicle Code violations without a mandatory appearance. Ask before the appearance date, and the court mails you the forms. You deposit the bail with your declaration, the officer writes a statement too, and the court rules on the papers alone. If you are found not guilty, the court mails the bail back to the address on the case.

Ask Butte County Superior Court to reduce what you owe based on your ability to pay. If you cannot pay at all, call Court Compliance at (530) 532-7014 to see whether community service can replace the fine. You fill out a financial declaration first.

For a failure to appear hold, post and forfeit the full bail or appear in court. A warrant needs a court appearance. Once you pay or appear, the court recalls the warrant or sends the hold release to the DMV. A case the court has sent to a collection agency is paid through that agency, not the court.

Interpreters and language help

Butte County Superior Court provides interpreters at no cost in all court proceedings and court-run services. File a Request for Interpreter, form SS01, with the clerk's office. At the counter or on the phone, you can ask out loud for a telephone interpreter. A sign language interpreter goes through form MC-410. The court posts its language access complaint form in Spanish. Mirai Traffic School's course runs in English, Spanish, Japanese and Russian.
