About this guide

Bellevue, Wisconsin, in Brown County, has about 17,000 residents (2024 Census Bureau estimate). A traffic ticket written in Bellevue is a court case in the Brown County Circuit Court; a city with a municipal court tries its own, and the conviction it ends in goes on the driving record kept by the Wisconsin Division of Motor Vehicles. This guide says which court takes the ticket, who writes them and where the driving record lives.

This guide covers where tickets go, who writes them, the driving record and common questions.

Where a Ticket Written in Bellevue Goes

A ticket written by a deputy or a state trooper in Bellevue goes to the Brown County Circuit Court; one written by city police goes to that city's municipal court where it has one. Either way the ticket is a court case, and the court's index is the record of it.

For Brown County, SearchSystems opened and checked the court records page for the county at browncountywi.gov/departments/clerk-of-circuit-court/general-inform...

Who Writes the Tickets in Bellevue

The Brown County Sheriff's Office and the agencies that report for Green Bay, De Pere, Ashwaubenon, Hobart, Wrightstown and Pulaski write the traffic tickets in and around Bellevue.

The FBI's agency list also places one more agency in Brown County: the University of Wisconsin at Green Bay (campus police).

The Driving Record and the Wisconsin Division of Motor Vehicles

The driving record is a separate document from the court file. It is kept by the Wisconsin Division of Motor Vehicles, which adds each conviction the court reports and handles suspensions; the court does not issue driving records.

Paying a ticket is a conviction, reported to the Wisconsin Division 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 OWI is a criminal charge rather than a ticket, with its own license case before the Division of Motor Vehicles (see Bellevue DUI).
