About the Macedonia Mayor's Court
The Macedonia Mayor’s Court serves the city of Macedonia and handles minor traffic and criminal cases. As a Mayor's Court, it is different from traditional municipal courts in that cases are heard by a magistrate (not a judge) appointed by the mayor, and cases can be transferred to a municipal court if needed.

Mayor’s courts, like Macedonia’s, are unique to Ohio and some other states, and function primarily to provide a faster, more community-focused approach to justice. While they can hear violations of city ordinances and other minor crimes, they are not trial courts or courts of record and cannot conduct jury trials. If a defendant desires a jury trial or wishes to transfer their case to a municipal court, they have the right to do so. The Macedonia Mayor’s Court works with the Stow Municipal Court when cases are transferred, and with the Juvenile Court in Akron when cases involve juvenile crimes.
We understand that your specific situation requires individualized attention, and we are dedicated to providing just that.
