What is a criminal court appearance ticket? In New York City, a criminal court appearance ticket is pink colored ticket issued by the New York City Police Department for certain criminal offenses or violations of New York City rules and is answered by appearing before a judge in New York City criminal court on the date listed on the ticket.

Were you issued a pink colored ticket that says "criminal court appearance ticket" at the top? This is a commonly issued ticket ​ that can be issued for misdemeanors, violations, and traffic infractions in New York City. These tickets are different from desk appearance tickets because unlike a desk appearance ticket, you typically won't be fingerprinted or photographed when being issued a summons. Also, desk appearance tickets are prosecuted by the District Attorney but summonses are prosecuted directly by the Criminal Court. There are similarities too. Like desk appearance tickets, summonses can charge you with a misdemeanor and in New York, a misdemeanor is a crime which means being convicted of a misdemeanor can give you a permanent criminal record. Summonses are commonly issued for things like fighting, disorderly conduct, unlicensed driving, reckless driving, marijuana, weapons, possession of ammunition, subway offenses, and other similar things. A summonses can also be issued to a corporation such as to a trucking company for safety or tax issues. The summons lists the day, time, and court that you must appear to face the charges. If you don't appear in court, a missed summons court date could lead to a warrant being issued for your arrest. If you can't appear in court or missed your court date, contact us because we may be able to appear for you.
