Comments
Athens has finally caught up on security, with a new metal detector. And they won't let you bring your cell phone in the courtroom - not even lawyers.
Warm court in older structure. Important detail here is that the judges will generally not dismiss a ticket if the Trooper doesn't show up, so you should make the best deal you can. Troopers seem to write a lot of tickets for Athens Town Court. Volume of speeding tickets is astonishing considering the population.
About the area
The court itself is near the Hudson River, and there is a nice park nearby. The town includes a stretch of the New York State Thruway (I-87). It's not that long, but there's a U-turn the Troopers like to use. The Court is a bit of a drive from the nearest exits.
Hours of Operation
Court sessions in the town of Athens are at either 4 pm or 5:30 pm.
Judges
Hon. James H. Robinson, Jr., and Hon. Constance Pazin. Robinson is new. Judge Pazin has been there awhile and is quite thoughtful. Judge Kerr retired after distinguished service.
