Misdemeanor fingerprints are done on Tuesdays only from 1pm ? 4pm on a walk in basis. There is no fee for this service. You must bring the original citation and have valid photo identification (California/State drivers license or identification card, military identification) in order to have your prints taken.

The Records Bureau performs fingerprinting services on Tuesday, Wednesday, or Thursday from 9:00-11:00 a.m. and 1:00-3:00 p.m. Those persons ordered by the court or as a condition of probation/parole must present proper paperwork and identification. Those persons needing fingerprint cards for security positions or employment must bring the blank cards with them. Do not write your personal information on the cards prior to arriving. The Sheriff's Department charges $20.

Persons looking for a FAST location can make an appointment with one of IIS’ regional fingerprint service providers or by calling 1-888-467-2080 between 8am and 5pm Central Time.

The date on the citation is the date of your initial appearance. An initial appearance is your opportunity to enter a plea to the charge. You may plead either GUILTY, NO CONTEST, or NOT GUILTY. The initial appearance is not the trial date and the Municipal Judge will not hear any extenuating circumstances. Should you plead guilty or no contest, the court will find you guilty and the matter will be resolved at the initial appearance.

The only person who can extend time to pay on a court fine is a municipal court judge. To request additional time to pay on a court case you must appear on the Court's Walk-In docket. You may be eligible for a one-time, 30-day extension of time to pay on a traffic citation. Contact the Court Clerk's Office at (316) 268-4611. Please be patient, we receive hundreds of calls each day. If granted an extension on your citation, a $5.00 extension fee will be added to the amount due.

In most jurisdictions, a misdemeanor is a crime where the maximum potential penalty the defendant may face does not exceed one year and is not death.
