Rules for Practice & Procedure
What You Need to Know
The Court Rules are adopted by the Toledo Municipal Court Judges to govern the practice of law in our courthouse. These rules impact all coming to court including the public, lawyers, media, law enforcement, and other officials entrusted with preserving the integrity of our legal system. The purpose of the Court Rules is to establish uniform standards and procedures for a neutral and predictable experience. These rules aim to ensure that cases are resolved without undue delay and that those who appear in court receive due process and equal treatment under the law.
The Court periodically updates these rules to improve operations. Updates will occasionally be available here for review and comment before implementation. Comments can be emailed to TMCADMIN@tmcourt.org .
