The City of Tucson Veterans’ Court accepts criminal misdemeanor cases that are diversion eligible and filed in Tucson City Court. A misdemeanor is a minor criminal offense. A few examples of a misdemeanor are disorderly conduct, petty theft or trespass. The veteran, prosecutor and judge must all agree before a case is referred to the Veterans’ Court docket. The City of Tucson's Prosecutor’s Office can refuse admission to this Court if admission would violate the law or the interest of justice. If the charge(s) are being challenged, the case will be referred to a non‐Veteran Court docket.
