ALBANY, Ga. (WALB) — The City of Albany Municipal Court is giving residents a chance to clear outstanding legal issues without the threat of arrest.

During these events, eligible individuals may be able to:

• Resolve outstanding warrants

• Work toward reinstating a suspended driver’s license
• Potentially receive reduced fines or waived fees

The event dates are:

• May 22, 2026
• August 28, 2026
• October 23, 2026

City officials said the goal is to provide an opportunity for individuals to move forward with a clean slate.

For more information, residents can contact the court at 229-431-2865.
