Traffic Citation
Some citations are commonly referenced as "fix a tickets." These citations are issued and the driver has (5) days to resolve the issue for which they are being ticketed. Once proof is supplied to the Clerk that the cited offense has been resolved within the designated timeframe, then the Clerk may dismiss the ticket. This may be as simple as calling our Traffic Division at #(812)349-2609 or #(812)335-7274.
Traffic Citations (Infractions) don't usually pull up in Odyssey, the court case management system, the same day a driver is cited/ticketed. For this reason, we encouraged drivers to check here to see if the ticket is in our court case management system: https://public.courts.in.gov/mycase/#/vw/Search
Citizens of Indiana have access to case filings not precluded by Rules on Access to Court Records Rule 5. If you wish to view a pending case or a closed case, Odyssey (the judicial tracking information program) provides access to court information via the internet. You can access case information without visiting or placing a call to the Justice Building. Please note: Juvenile and mental health matters, per Rules on Access to Court Records Rule 5 are not accessible.
Visitors must know at the minimum the first 3 letters of the last name or full case number to perform the search. If you are using only the first 3 letters, place an * after the 3rd letter prior to submitting.

Infraction Diversion Program
The Infraction Diversion Program (IDP) is a voluntary program for qualifying drivers who are charged with certain traffic offenses. When a driver successfully completes this program, the traffic ticket is dismissed and no conviction or points for that ticket will appear on the driver’s record. Failure to successfully complete the program, however, will result in the ticket being “re-docketed”(rescheduled) and prosecuted (note also that no refund of IDP fees are made for any reason).
The benefits of participating in the program are:
- Drivers are given the opportunity to avoid potential increases in insurance costs
- Drivers can avoid additional points on their license
- Drivers eliminate the necessity to appear in traffic court in response to the ticket
The Infraction Diversion Program makes every effort to notify eligible drivers by mail prior to their initial court hearing. To learn about the eligibility requirements for the IDP program, click on Program Eligibility.
