MONMOUTH COUNTY · COURT CODE 1319
The practical details to read before you pay, plead not guilty, join Zoom, or drive to Howell Township Municipal Court.
HANDLE YOUR TICKET
Use the exact court code, ticket number, and license information printed on your ticket.
LOCATION & ARRIVAL
The court is located with the Howell Police Department—not at Town Hall on Route 9. The Old Tavern Road facility has shared surface parking; follow court-entry signs.
Do not navigate to the Township Municipal Building. Use 300 Old Tavern Road and arrive early enough for the police/court facility check-in process.
Open turn-by-turn directions →VIRTUAL OR IN PERSON?
New Jersey generally schedules initial municipal appearances virtually, while later matters may be virtual or in person. Howell’s court notice is the controlling instruction.
FIRST APPEARANCE
The judge explains rights and possible consequences. The court identifies your plea and representation status. NJ Courts says a trial may take place that day or on another scheduled date.
