A New Hampshire Local Ordinance Violation Citation/Summons is a document issued by a New Hampshire local law enforcement agency that informs an individual of a potential violation of a local ordinance. The citation/summons typically contains information about the alleged violation, the local ordinance that was violated, the date and time of the violation, and the penalties associated with the violation. Depending on the severity of the violation, the citation/summons may also include a court date. There are three types of New Hampshire Local Ordinance Violation Citation/Summons: a Warning Citation, a Standard Citation, and a Summons. A Warning Citation is issued for minor violations and does not require a court appearance but may require the payment of a fine. A Standard Citation is issued for more serious violations and requires a court appearance. A Summons is the most serious type of citation/summons and requires a court appearance and may result in a jail sentence.
