(Cleveland) – In an effort to engage the local community on a change in Ohio law that could affect thousands of people with vehicle license suspensions, The Cleveland Municipal Court has created a special hotline and website to help those trying to get their driving privileges reinstated.

A free phone app is available for paying parking tickets in the City of Cleveland. “Getting a parking ticket is certainly a hassle”, said Cleveland Clerk of Courts Earle B. Turner, “but what’s worse than getting one is forgetting about it, and allowing late fees to be added, or worse, finding out that you can’t renew your tags because of old tickets. This app is another option of settling the ticket quickly”.

New program allows owners to register up to 4 vehicles. The program is for vehicles that have had a violation within the past 18 months.

Lawyers throughout Greater Cleveland are invited to a demonstration of the new e-filing system of the Cleveland Municipal Court on Tuesday, September 20, 2011. At 10 am on the 12th floor of the Justice Center, attorneys will learn how to use the latest phase of the e-filing system, which allows civil briefs to be filed through the Court’s website. Until now, paper documents had to be filed at the Clerk’s office.
