Beginning November 4, 2024, court dates in Court 2 and Court 3 will be in person. Beginning January 2, 2025, most court dates in all St. Louis City Municipal Court will be in person.

• In-person court dates require the defendant to attend court in person, rather than virtually, at 1520 Market, St. Louis, MO 63104.

• If the Division number is V1, V2, V3 or V4 your first court date is for a virtual appearance.
• If you received a non-traffic charge by information in the mail, the courtroom will be shown on the top right side.
