Which court has exclusive jurisdiction over all traffic offenses within the municipality, city, and ordinance violations?

• A. District Court
• B. Justice of the Peace Court
• C. Constitutional County Court
• D. Municipal Court

Answer: (D)

Traffic offenses inside a city and violations of city ordinances are handled by the Municipal Court. This court is created by the municipality to enforce local rules and deal with offenses that occur within its borders, and it has exclusive jurisdiction over these matters. That means cases arising from traffic within the city aren’t heard by higher courts like District Court or Constitutional County Court, nor by Justice of the Peace courts when the offenses fall under city jurisdiction. The other courts handle different types of cases or offenses outside municipal boundaries, while the Municipal Court specializes in city traffic and ordinance violations.
