Where to go once you are inside the Metropolitan Courthouse
First line - metal detector security check
You first have to wait in line to go through the metal detectors as part of a security check.
Traffic Ticket Clerk
After getting through the metal detector security check you now have to wait in another line to see a traffic ticket clerk at one of the windows. Once you finally see the traffic ticket clerk, you will probably be given a court date at least 6 months later where you will have to come back all over again just to see a judge.
Failure to Appear / Failure to Pay
If you have a Failure To Appear (FTA), you can request a court date to see a judge, unless you have already appeared before a judge. If you have a Failure To Pay (FTP), you cannot get another court date to see a judge, and in our opinion your only option is to pay the fine to get your license back.
Collections Agency (formerly GC Services)
All traffic tickets for the Metropolitan Court that were with GC Services collections agency have now been transferred to Linebarger Goggan Blair & Sampson LLP (a collection agency currently used by the Los Angeles Superior Court for debt collection). Linebarger Goggan Blair & Sampson LLP do not have a window at the courthouse; you can contact them by phone 1-844-598-2699.
