Hilliard Mayor’s Court
Overview
Hilliard Mayor’s Court is held every Wednesday starting at 7:30am. This Court is not presided over by the Mayor, but an appointed magistrate. The court handles OVI/DUI cases as well as other misdemeanor cases like theft and assault. This Court does not conduct jury trials, though, if a jury trial is requested, the trial may be transferred to the Franklin County Municipal Court.
The charges brought in mayor’s court can be serious with monetary fines ranging from $250 to $10,000, license suspension, increased insurance premiums, vehicle forfeiture and/or jail time, so it is important to have experienced legal representation.
