Searching the New Holstein Court Docket
For local court dates, contact details, and plea instructions, the New Holstein/Cleveland Joint Municipal Court page comes first. It offers no search by name or citation. Instead, read the citation closely. Then call the court clerk to ask about the specific New Holstein record you need.
- Identify the court, citation number, ordinance, date, and response method on the notice.
- Check the New Holstein municipal page and official brochure for the current local process.
- Call the joint-court clerk at (920) 898-5766 with enough detail to identify the matter.
- Ask how to inspect or obtain the existing public docket record.
- If the notice names Calumet Circuit Court, use WCCA with the Calumet filter, case number, party, or citation.
- Confirm the setting before appearing because the published Tuesday pattern can change.
This sequence avoids treating a municipal citation as a circuit case.
New Holstein Cleveland Joint Docket
New Holstein runs one municipal court with the Village or Town of Cleveland. That joint court handles traffic and nontraffic ordinance violations from both communities. The municipal clerk keeps the local docket. Circuit files live with the Calumet Clerk of Circuit Court in Chilton. The official joint municipal page lays out the local route. It covers its own clerk, schedule, and city hall location.

That page ties a New Holstein record search to the joint court's own clerk, schedule, and city hall address.
New Holstein Municipal Court Basics
The New Holstein municipal docket covers local traffic and nontraffic ordinance matters only. It is not part of WCCA. The county clerk does not keep it. A New Holstein ticket should name the court and describe the conduct. It should also cite the ordinance and list the court date plus your response options. Those details tell you what to request and from whom. The court sits at New Holstein City Hall, 2110 Washington Street, New Holstein, WI 53061. Call the clerk at (920) 898-5766. City Hall posts hours of Monday through Thursday from 7:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Friday hours run 7:00 a.m. to noon. Office hours and session times differ, so confirm access before you visit.
New Holstein Brochure Docket Guide
With no public search form available, the official municipal-court brochure serves as the local process guide. It walks through pleas, appearances, and how a case moves through the joint court. Pair its current version with your citation. Remember, though, that a brochure gives procedure only. It cannot show one case's event history or prove a payment posted. For a specific New Holstein docket entry, ask the clerk about the setting, plea entry, disposition, or any other existing record. Give the citation number and name too. If the file is actually a circuit matter, use the WCCA search and the Calumet clerk instead.
Court Dates and Settings in New Holstein
The published New Holstein schedule sets pretrials at 1:00 p.m. on the first Tuesday. On the remaining Tuesdays, juvenile matters run at 5:30 p.m. Adult matters follow at 6:00 p.m. Those are the recurring times, not a promise that any one case stays set. Confirm your date and any holiday changes with the clerk.
| Date | The date printed on the citation or later set by the New Holstein court. |
|---|---|
| Time | Pretrial, juvenile, or adult session time as applicable. |
| Location | New Holstein City Hall, 2110 Washington Street. |
| Court | New Holstein/Cleveland Joint Municipal Court. |
| Setting type | Initial appearance, pretrial, trial, or another directed event. |
A published Tuesday pattern does not replace the notice. Call when the two differ.
New Holstein Tuesday Docket Pattern
New Holstein splits its month: early pretrials first, then juvenile and adult evening sessions. Those evening hours set it apart from the Calumet County clerk's daytime counter. Other municipal calendars in the county run differently too.
- First-Tuesday pretrial
- The published 1:00 p.m. pretrial session.
- Juvenile session
- The published 5:30 p.m. time on remaining Tuesdays, subject to confidential-access rules.
- Adult session
- The published 6:00 p.m. time on remaining Tuesdays.
- Reset
- A court-approved move from the listed setting to another date.
A case fitting a session does not make it public. Juvenile records follow special access rules.
Traffic Tickets in New Holstein
A New Holstein traffic ticket can be either a municipal ordinance matter or a state-law circuit case. Read the named court first. For a local record, go to the joint municipal court clerk. For a Calumet Circuit Court case, use WCCA. Its citation help covers formats like X111111-1, 111111-1, and X111111. How you pay or contest depends on the notice itself. Check with the New Holstein clerk first. Never assume a circuit payment link covers a municipal ticket. County-wide state routes are on Calumet County Traffic Tickets. Keep your receipt and confirm the next court date.
Read a New Holstein Citation
The city's Chapter 20 material spells out what a municipal citation must say. Those fields help you identify the right New Holstein court record and the response it demands. None of it replaces legal advice.
| Citation field | Why it matters |
|---|---|
| Name and address | Identifies the cited person on the municipal record |
| Facts, date, time, place | Describes the alleged event and local setting |
| Ordinance designation | Identifies the claimed New Holstein or Cleveland violation |
| Court time and place | Routes the appearance to the joint court |
| Cash-deposit effect | Explains the stated payment consequences |
| No appearance or default | States the notice's warning about failing to respond |
Call the clerk if a key field is unclear or the court date clashes with the web schedule.
Missing New Holstein WCCA Result
A blank WCCA result does not mean no New Holstein file exists. The ticket may belong to the joint municipal court, which offers no public docket search. Or the file may be new, restricted, or filed under a citation number shaped differently from the one you tried.
Best next step: Call (920) 898-5766 with the ticket and ask the joint-court clerk to identify the local record and current setting.
If the notice names Calumet Circuit Court, retry WCCA using the Calumet filter. Add the issuing agency, offense date, party name, and citation variants. The circuit clerk at (920) 849-1414 handles that separate file.
New Holstein City Hall Docket Access
New Holstein City Hall houses both the joint court and the municipal access counter. Its posted office hours are not the same as the court calendar. Sessions run into the evening, while Friday city hall hours stop at noon.

Call before you travel. Ask which counter takes record requests, whether a copy fee applies, and what identifying details to bring. The city runs no separate public kiosk and no online New Holstein case-history viewer.
Where New Holstein Cases Go
A citation that names the joint municipal court is where New Holstein traffic and nontraffic ordinance cases begin. State charges move elsewhere. Felonies, misdemeanors, civil claims, and other state-law matters belong to the Wisconsin Circuit Court in Calumet County, and an appeal can land there too.
Docket flow: New Holstein/Cleveland Joint Municipal Court › Wisconsin Circuit Court, Calumet County › Wisconsin Court of Appeals
When a circuit case exists, WCCA provides the public search layer while the Calumet Clerk of Circuit Court keeps the filed documents. The Calumet County court docket overview walks through that county-level path. It supplements rather than replaces the New Holstein municipal clerk.
New Holstein Docket and Circuit Search
The two channels answer different questions. For a local citation, plea, court date, or municipal disposition, the New Holstein clerk is the source. WCCA takes the circuit side. It searches Wisconsin case data by county, name, case number, citation, agency, and filing criteria. Use each for its own purpose rather than as a stand-in for the other.
| Channel | Record | Contact |
|---|---|---|
| New Holstein joint court | Traffic and nontraffic ordinance docket | Municipal clerk, (920) 898-5766 |
| Calumet Circuit Court | State criminal, civil, traffic, and appeal file | WCCA and circuit clerk |
| Wisconsin eFiling | Party and attorney filing access | Not a public document viewer |

New Holstein Court Record Access Rules
Wisconsin's public-record framework governs New Holstein municipal records, within lawful confidentiality and privacy limits. Wisconsin Stat. §19.35 sets out the broad inspection and copy policy. A good request identifies an existing record rather than asking staff to build a new report.
Key rules:
Wis. Stat. §19.35 supports access to government records subject to legal limits.
Wis. Stat. §801.19 protects account, license, passport, Social Security, and related identifiers in circuit records.
Wis. Stat. §938.396 sets special juvenile-record access rules.
Direct your request to the New Holstein clerk for a municipal file and the Calumet clerk for a circuit file. Either office can tell you whether a restriction applies.
New Holstein Docket Caseload Context
The official Calumet table lists a New Holstein city portion of 3,195 people in the 2020 Census. A 2025 preliminary figure sits at 3,155. That places New Holstein fourth among the five profiled city portions. Keep population in perspective. It is context, not a tally of people in court.
For caseload clues, the city's 2023 police annual report carries a citation chart spanning 2020 through 2023. It covers both municipal and circuit citations. The chart shows that citations can route to two systems. Read its individual figures straight from the document before quoting them. Do not treat the numbers as a unique-person or outcome count.
New Holstein Ordinance Docket Scope
The joint court handles both traffic and nontraffic ordinances. Traffic cases can involve rules of the road. These are adopted or enforced through the municipality. Nontraffic matters reach other local code provisions. The ordinance designation printed on the citation names the claimed basis.
A municipal ordinance case is not automatically a Calumet state traffic case. A city police contact does not settle where the docket lives either. The named court, the citation, and any transfer or appeal papers control the route. That distinction keeps you out of the wrong system.
