Comments

Court staff is great and judges are reasonable. An attorney can usually get an adjournment, even at the last minute. Call the Court in advance to make sure you go at the right time. The time on the ticket may not be the best time to show up, as the ADA may leave earlier than you expect.

About the area

Clifton Park is a thriving suburb north of Albany in southern Saratoga County. It's seen a lot of residential development. The town has no police force of its own, relying on the County Sheriff and State Troopers. Taxpayers in Colonie and Guilderland are jealous.

Hours of Operation

Criminal & Traffic Wednesdays & Thursdays at 7 pm. Small Claims starts at 5 but should be scheduled in advance. Note that Heggen often leaves before 7 pm, so it

Judges

Hon. James F. Hughes & Hon. Robert A. Rybak. Judge Hughes is a former cop and one of the smartest, wisest, and fairest judges around.

Prosecutors

Karen Heggen, from the Saratoga County DA's office, is the ADA for this Court. She generally gives deals that are not as good as one might get from other ADAs, and she will try the case if you don't accept her offer. She's friendly and not unreasonable, but the deals just aren't as good. It's possible she has moved on from Clifton Park Town Court, and another ADA might be here.

Type Of Cases

Lots of speeding tickets from the Northway in Clifton Park Traffic Court. Also criminal cases, small claims, etc.

Sep 29 2010 06:29:06: I find your "ad" re Clinton, childish and stupid, and inappropriate, and an adequate reason not to consider you any further.
Jan 17 2009 05:20:31: Karen Heggen is about as unreasonable as they come. She can also be unprofessional with other attorneys. Perhaps that has something to do with her height!<br>[Editor's note: I know Ms. Heggen and disagree. She is a fine professional. I don't get the height reference either.]
