Minerva Mayors Court

Minerva Mayor’s Court

Located at 2829 Minerva Lake Road, this Court serves as a local judicial forum to rule on misdemeanor cases alleged to have occurred within the city’s limits. Here, an appointed magistrate presides over each case. These cases may include misdemeanor offenses such as theft, assault, and serious traffic offenses such as OVI/DUI, Hit Skip, No Operators License and Driving Under Suspension.

The charges brought in mayor’s court can be serious with fines ranging from $250 to $10,000 and/or jail time from 30 to 180 days so it is important to have experienced legal representation. With a proven track record and familiarity with Minerva Park Mayor’s Court, Funkhouser Law provides premier legal representation in criminal and traffic cases. Mr. Funkhouser and his associate personally guide clients through every step of the process—from arraignment to evaluating the evidence in their case to ensure that clients receive the most favorable outcome with the least disturbance to their lives. Ultimately, the goal of the attorneys at Funkhouser Law is to obtain the best results for clients through a dismissal or a favorable negotiated outcome of their case.

Transferring the Case

In some cases, it may be desirable to transfer a case to the Franklin County Municipal Court where a jury trial may be requested. In this case, a written jury demand and request for transfer must be made. To transfer your case, please confer with Funkhouser Law about the likely effects this would have on your case and how it may be accomplished.
