From: City of Chandler

The Chandler Municipal Court will be open on Saturday, Nov. 5 from 8 a.m. to noon to offer walk-in services to the public. No appointment is necessary during these special weekend hours. 

The Chandler Municipal Court has partnered with Arizona Department of Transportation (ADOT) – Motor Vehicle Services (MVD) to offer limited court and motor vehicle services on Nov. 5.  Judges, court staff and MVD representatives will be available to address outstanding warrants, traffic tickets, defaults, resolving suspended driver’s licenses, payment plans, arraignments, MVD matters and other civil and criminal issues. Spanish interpreters will be available. 

“Our goal for Saturday Court is to provide additional ways for the public to have access to the court,” said Presiding City Magistrate, Alicia Skupin. “By providing hours on a Saturday morning, we are hoping to eliminate some of the barriers that may prevent defendants from resolving their cases during traditional business hours. As a court, we continually work to find ways to better serve the members of our community and increase access to justice.”

This is the first time that Chandler Municipal Court is offering Saturday Court. If it is well-attended, staff may consider adding additional Saturday Court dates.
