What Poestenkill Town Court handles
Poestenkill Town Court is a town court in Rensselaer County. Justice and city courts outside New York City hear Vehicle & Traffic Law (VTL) matters — speeding, cell-phone and seat-belt tickets, equipment violations, and many misdemeanor traffic charges such as DWI and aggravated unlicensed operation. The court named on your ticket is where you (or your attorney) enter a plea and, if needed, negotiate or try the case.
A guilty plea can mean points on your license, higher insurance, surcharges, and — for some charges — a suspension. Many tickets can be negotiated down without you appearing in person.
