Traffic Tickets

A person who has received a traffic ticket may plead guilty and pay the waiver without making a court appearance, unless, the face of the ticket indicates a court appearance is required. Tickets may be paid by mail, online by following this link, or in person at the Clerk's Office located at 555 East 222nd Street. The ticket must be paid no later than the day before the court date noted on the ticket.


Cash, check, money order, Visa or MasterCard may be used to pay a waiver. If paying by Visa or MasterCard over the telephone, a $2.50 service fee will be added. Checks shall be made payable to Euclid Municipal Court.


The Court also accepts payment made online.


Each citation indicates the number of violations and their descriptions. There is a fine amount for each violation but only state and local court costs will be assessed once per citation.
