If I have been charged with a criminal offense, such as a disorderly persons offense, petty disorderly persons offense or a violation of a Township Ordinance (housing or otherwise), what must I do?

You must
appear in court on the date indicated on the summons.  At that time you will be informed of your
rights in the Municipal Court.  You may
wish an opportunity to seek legal counsel, or you may apply for a public
defender.  In any case you will be
directed by the Municipal Court Judge as to the next step.
