What if I don’t remember where my marijuana or hashish case was heard?

 What if I don’t remember where my marijuana or hashish case was heard?

         Look at the paperwork from your marijuana or hashish case. If you cannot find any papers, you can still find where the case was heard.

·       If your case was heard in Superior Court, start at the Superior Court courthouse in the county where you were arrested or charged. If you were an adult, go to the criminal division. If you were charged as a juvenile, go to the family division.

·       If your case was heard in municipal court, start at the municipal court in the town where you were arrested or charged.

·       If you do not remember which court handled your case, you can do one of these things: 

o   Go to your local municipal court.

o   Go to the Superior Court courthouse in your county.

o   Go to the Superior Court Clerk's Office in Trenton.

·       In all instances, call the court for instructions before you go. You will need to bring photo identification.
