September is Court Amnesty Month

Dunwoody, GA - August 28, 2025 - Throughout September, Dunwoody Municipal Court will hold an Amnesty Program for individuals with past-due traffic citations or active bench warrants related to a failure to appear in court. The goal is to give people a fresh opportunity to resolve outstanding matters while helping reduce the risk of arrest.

"This is not a gimmick. We simply want to make it easier for people to return to court and take care of their cases without the extra financial stress," said Dunwoody Municipal Court Clerk Norlaundra Huntington. "During Amnesty Month last year, we disposed of more than 50 failure-to-appear and warrant status cases."

Here's how it works:

• Visit Dunwoody Municipal Court (4800 Ashford Dunwoody Road) on Mondays, Tuesdays, or Fridays between 8:30 a.m. and 4:30 p.m.
• If fines are paid in full, all contempt fees will be waived.
• If a mandatory court appearance is required, you'll be given a future court date, and any outstanding warrants and warrant fees will be cleared.

Forms of payment that will be accepted are cash, money order, cashier checks, and credit cards but no personal checks. For more information, call 678.382.6973.
