Planning for Upper Township Municipal Court

The old Dennis reference is not current membership

Upper's webpage still says it serves Dennis Township, but Dennis and Sea Isle's current pages place Dennis with Sea Isle effective May 1, 2025. This guide therefore does not list Dennis as an Upper member. Sources: Court service relationship and dennis township municipal court — court service relationship: Dennis Township Municipal Court (checked September 5, 2026) · Dennis Township Municipal Court — Court service relationship: Sea Isle City Municipal Courts & Violations Bureau (checked September 5, 2026). Open the Dennis Township Municipal Court guide.

Use 609-628-2015 and confirm the Wednesday session from the notice. Woodbine retains code 0516 and its guide explains the move from Middle Township after the former agreement ended in 2025. Sources: Phone: New Jersey Judiciary State List of Municipal Courts (checked September 5, 2026) · court directory: State List of Municipal Courts (roster dated August 31, 2026) · Woodbine Borough Municipal Court — Court service relationship: Woodbine 2026 shared-services budget schedule (checked September 5, 2026) · Woodbine Borough Municipal Court — Court service relationship: Upper Township Resolution 260-2025 (checked September 5, 2026).

Before an appearance

Use the current notice and the actual charge

Keep the summons or complaint, later notices, and relevant records together. Check the court code, case or ticket number, date, and whether the notice requires an in-person or virtual appearance. For evidence requests and timing, use the municipal-court discovery and adjournments guide; for the charge itself, start with the traffic-defense overview, DWI guide, or criminal-defense overview.

Published addresses and calendars can change or may describe an office rather than the hearing instructions for one case. Follow the latest notice and call the court if it conflicts with this page.

NJMCDirect lists eligible payment options, but paying can resolve a charge as a guilty plea. Understand the effect before using payment to dispose of a case.

Have the complete court notice ready.

Tell Shugar Law Office the charge, court code 0511 and date. We’ll review the actual paperwork and explain whether the firm can help.
