Court code
Your DMV court code
A DMV court code is five digits long, and it tells the DMV and the court which case your completion belongs to. Your citation and courtesy notice name the court that has your case.
In Lake County that is the Clearlake Branch at 7000-A South Center Drive in Clearlake, DMV court code 17610. The court's locations page lists infraction traffic among the case types handled there and lists no traffic at the Lakeport courthouse, so 17610 is the code for an adult Lake County ticket.
Mirai Traffic School asks for your court and its code before the final exam. Pick the Clearlake Branch and 17610, whichever town on the lake you were cited in.

Court's page for this building
Does not hear traffic
The Lakeport courthouse is the court's main courthouse, and it hears felony, family, civil, probate and juvenile cases but no traffic infractions. The court's relocation notice names its new courthouse at 675 Lakeport Blvd. in Lakeport, which the Judicial Council describes as the replacement for the Lakeport Division Courthouse.
CHP area offices in this county: Clear Lake Area
A minor cited with an infraction appears for a hearing at the Lake County Probation Department, not at the Clearlake Branch. Traffic school is requested at that hearing, and the hearing officer decides whether the minor may attend.
Your case
Find your case, then ask for traffic school
Finding your case
The court mails you a courtesy notice after the citation, and the court says that notice answers most questions, including the bail amount. Your citation names the court and carries the citation number, and the notice carries the case number. Keep both papers together, since the interpreter form and a call to the clerk start with your case number.
The court's traffic page is the place to start online. It links the court's own traffic portal, where you can plead not guilty and ask for a trial, and the court's public search for case information and the current court calendar. For anything the papers do not answer, call the Traffic Division at (707) 994-6598.
How to ask for traffic school
Lake County Superior Court signs you up for traffic school when you pay the fine together with the court's administrative fee. Your courtesy notice shows the amount and the due date, and the court's traffic page lists the ways to pay, so read both before you send anything. Pay the full amount, because the court does not accept partial payments by mail.
If you cannot pay in full and still want traffic school, the court sends you to form TR-320 with its traffic school addendum. Its online fine reduction tool does not take traffic school requests. The court clerk's office also has the form.

Questions
Frequently asked questions
What drivers ask about Lake 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.
Interpreters and language help
Tell the judge at your hearing that you need an interpreter, or ask ahead on form INT-300, which lists Traffic as a case type. Bring the form in person or mail it to the court location of your next hearing, then call before your court date to confirm. The court provides a certified interpreter where the law requires one, and a friend or relative cannot interpret in court. The court also publishes its Limited English Proficiency Plan. Mirai Traffic School's course runs in English, Spanish, Japanese and Russian.
