Burbank Criminal Court
The Burbank Criminal Courthouse in Los Angeles County is located
at 300 E. Olive Avenue in the City of Burbank California 91502. The
telephone number to the Court is (818) 557-3482.

The Court handles both civil and criminal matters 5 days a week.  The
Superior Court is comprised of seven divisions and  has four full time
judges and three commissioners.  Divisions 1, 2 and G hear criminal
cases such as petty theft, domestic violence, DUI, drunk driving and
hit and run.  While most traffic matters, such as speeding ticket
offenses, are heard in division 3.  Parking is available in the lot behind
the Court.

For all criminal cases, warrants and traffic matters the first Court
appearance is known as the arraignment and is a time for a plea to be
entered. A Criminal Defense Lawyer in Burbank should be consulted
for these cases.

The Court allows private attorneys to appear on behalf of his or her
client on most misdemeanor, infraction and traffic cases such as DUI,
and speeding ticket charges.  When you or a loved one has been
arrested or has a warrant of arrest, hiring the right Burbank defense
attorney is important to the outcome of the case.  

A common question people have is what is a bench warrant?  
Answer:  It is the most common type of judicial order in criminal
Court.  A Burbank judge will usually issue one when someone fails to
appear in Court, does not comply with a term of probation, or doesn't
pay a fine or finish classes or community service.  The amount of the
bench warrant will usually relate to the severity of the offense.  Any
law enforcement officer can take a person into custody under the
authority of such a judicial order.  In some cases the warrant is issued
as a "no bail" order.  This means if the individual is arrested he or she
cannot post a bail bond and be released.

If you believe there is an outstanding warrant for your arrest in
Burbank California you need to contact an experienced criminal
attorney immediately. You are at risk of being arrested and taken to jail
at any time the police choose to do so.  A Lawyer can go to Court for
you and have the warrant recalled and quashed, often without the
necessity of the client appearing.  Any unfinished probationary terms
can be reinstated and the individual's record can be cleaned up.  
Once the warrant has been cleared, we can request the Court to notify
the DMV and clear any hold on a person's drivers license.  The  State
of California Department of Justice will also be notified to update a
person's criminal record to reflect the clearance.
