Lima District Court

In Pennsylvania, there are district courts in every county, and sometimes several that serve one particular borough or township if it is relatively large. Delaware County has thirty two district courts within its boundaries.

District Court 32-2-48 is located in Lima and covers Chester Heights, Edgmont Township, and Middletown Township. The physical address of the court is 27 South Pennell Road in Lima, and it can be contacted by telephone at 610-565-4110 or by fax at 610-565-1640.

The Honorable Judge Walter A. Strohl presides over District Court 32-2-48. District courts in Pennsylvania only handle certain kinds of cases, including municipal code violations, small civil claims under $12,000, and landlord tenant disputes. But the most common kinds of cases handled in district courts are traffic violations and summary criminal offenses. You are likely facing charges of speeding, failure to yield, running a red light or a stop sign, or a DUI if you have gotten a traffic citation. You may be facing charges of criminal mischief, harassment, disorderly conduct, shoplifting, loitering, or underage drinking if you have been arrested for a summary offense.

But you need to know how steep the penalties for a conviction of these offenses can be. These seemingly minor offenses can cost you hundreds of dollars in fines and put you behind bars for weeks or even months if you have been convicted in district court before.
