Shreveport City Court

Citizens have the following options to handle their citation prior to the deadline date appearing on your citation.  The date on your citation is not a court date.  

1. Citizens may pay the fine(s) and cost(s) of the violation in full without appearing in court on Non Court Mandatory violations.  Payments may be made in person at the violation bureau at Shreveport City Court between the hours of 8:00 AM and 4:30 PM, Monday through Friday.  Payments may also be made through the Online Payment link above.

2. Citizens who wish to contest their citation at trial MUST call Shreveport City Court at (318) 673-5830 to schedule a court date. The citizen will be given options to select a Monday morning or Friday morning as a court date. 

3. Citizens who do not wish to contest their citations at trial or who are cited for a violation deemed COURT MANDATORY, as listed on the back of the citation, may attend any night court session on the first Monday of each month at 5:30 PM at Shreveport City Court. No trials will be held during night court sessions.

For citizens who fail to pay the citation or schedule a court date by the deadline date on the citation, a warrant may be issued for their arrest.
