Fine / Penalty PolicyNashville (Metro Nashville/Davidson County) requires a written 'Not Guilty' plea and a formal request for a hearing before a General Sessions Judge. This must be done using the form on the back of your Traffic Court Information Sheet. Unlike some cities, you cannot simply write a letter; you must use the specific city-provided form to stop the automatic adjudication process. The Traffic Violation Bureau is housed in the Justice A.A. Birch Building. Critical: if you have a mix of moving and non-moving (parking) violations on a single ticket, you must satisfy the non-moving violations first. If you miss your compliance date, a $50.00 administrative court cost is added per violation. Using the Appeal Kit to ensure the 'Not Guilty' form is filled out correctly is vital, as the court rejects incomplete forms without notice.
