Flagstaff Municipal Court accepts the ARS §28-1558 two-stage documentary-hearing process. File a Request for Documentary Hearing within 30 days of the citation.
Arizona does NOT require a bond to request a Documentary Hearing under ARS §28-1558. Only pay now if you are admitting the infraction without contesting. Most Arizona courts accept payment through AZCourtPay: Flagstaff Municipal Court’s online pay portal.
Every extra week between the citation and your filing is another week the officer can forget. Arizona courts routinely grant first-time extension requests as a matter of course — you generally do not need a hardship reason.
