Where Bogota DWI Cases Are Heard
First-offense N.J.S.A. 39:4-50 charges from Bogota traffic stops route to Bogota Boro Municipal Court (215-217 Liberty St). Refusal charges (N.J.S.A. 39:4-50.4a) follow the same path. Repeat-offense or DWI-with-injury cases (N.J.S.A. 2C:11-5.3, assault by auto) escalate to Bergen County Superior Court in Hackensack. Bogota Borough of Police executes Alcotest 7110 stops; State v.

What the Law Says
DWI matters in Bogota are controlled by:
- N.J.S.A. 39:4-50 — primary DWI statute
- N.J.S.A. 39:4-50.4a — companion / procedural authority
- State v. Chun, 194 N.J. 54 (2008) — leading NJ case-law
First-offense Bogota DWI cases stay in Bogota Boro Municipal Court; post-2019 reform replaced mandatory license suspension with ignition interlock for many first offenses. Refusal cases (N.J.S.A. 39:4-50.4a) proceed in parallel. State v. Chun, 194 N.J. 54 (2008) governs Alcotest 7110 foundation challenges — the standard Bogota DWI defense angle.
