About this guide

Macedonia, Ohio, in Summit County, has about 12,000 residents (2024 Census Bureau estimate). A traffic ticket written in Macedonia is a court case in the Municipal and County Courts, and the conviction it ends in goes on the driving record kept by the Ohio Bureau of Motor Vehicles. This guide says which court takes the ticket, who writes them and where the driving record lives.

Where a Ticket Written in Macedonia Goes

A traffic ticket written in Macedonia is answered in the Municipal and County Courts, which take misdemeanors, traffic cases, evictions and civil cases up to $15,000; mayor's courts handle some village tickets. The ticket itself is a court case, and the court's index is the record of it.

The court records page SearchSystems verified for the county is at clerkweb.summitoh.net.

Ohio has no single public index of every trial court case; each court's records are looked up through that court.

Who Writes the Tickets in Macedonia

The Summit County Sheriff's Office and the agency that reports for Macedonia (filed by the FBI as Macedonia Police Department) write the traffic tickets in and around Macedonia.

The FBI's agency list also places these agencies in Summit County: the University of Akron (campus police); the Akron Metro Regional Transit Authority (other agency).

The Driving Record and the Ohio Bureau of Motor Vehicles

Convictions are reported by the court to the Ohio Bureau of Motor Vehicles, which keeps the driving record and decides on points and suspensions. Order the driving record from that agency, not from the court.

Paying a ticket is a conviction, reported to the Ohio Bureau of Motor Vehicles like any other; contesting it means a plea of not guilty entered with the court by the date on the ticket.

An OVI is a criminal charge rather than a ticket, with its own license case before the Bureau of Motor Vehicles (see Macedonia DUI).
