Pay for Traffic Tickets Online in Sauk County, Wisconsin using this service.
The date on your citation is the date of your initial appearance. An initial appearance is your opportunity to enter a plea to the charge. You may plead guilty, no contest, or not guilty. The initial appearance is not the trial date. If you plead guilty or no contest, the court will find you guilty and the matter will be resolved at the initial appearance. If you plead not guilty, your case will be scheduled for a pre-trial at a later date, which you must appear for.
If you wish to plead not guilty, you may do this by mail without appearing in court on the date set forth on your citation. Please refer to the following section entitled “I Wish to Plead Not Guilty, How do I do that and What Will Happen in court?”
If you do not post bail money and you also fail to appear in court on your court date, you will be found guilty and judgment will be entered against you. If you fail to pay the forfeiture amount within the time set by the Court (60 days from the court date), your license will be suspended. Alternatively, contempt of court proceedings maybe brought against you.
