Crawford County District Court - Van Buren Division

If you have a domestic case they tell you to let them know if you have any problems but there's nothing they can do they don't allow you to go to court or give you paperwork they won't drug or alcohol test and the probation officer is gullible they believe everything they say

Worthless. Corrupt. No concern for a person life if your there for a felony or even a misdemeanor. They view all as simple criminals with no care to help someone better their life. Instead will provide a thousand ways to jail someone or keep them in the system rather then help them. May it be a DWI, arrested for hard drugs or a simply traffic ticket. They treat all life with disregard. Do not ever come to the county and if you do, pray you don't come across any interactions with the backwards judicial system here. They all can rot.

Worst court I have ever dealt with. I was not allowed to speak with a public defender before my arraignment so I was confused and because I didnt know what to say Judge Baker said I can non compliant and issued me no bond on an fta for TRAFFIC TICKET for the first 3 days I was in jail. I received zero time served for the 7 days I was held in their jail. For a $180 traffic fine I now owe over $1000. This is the most unprofessional, corrupt, money hungry place.

This place is a scam. I couldnt make my court date due to work and asked if I could just send in a plea of guilty for speeding. The guy on the phone told me yes and told me to send in $175 with my plea. I sent it in and they sent it back to me saying I owe them $545 for missing my court date. They are bigger crooks than me who was in a hurry to get my wife from the airport, hadnt had a speeding ticket in over 10 years, police even looked at me like he wanted to put a bullet in me.
