Unless you are referring to a violation of a local ORDNANCE, Municipal courts customarily do NOT have jurisdiction to hear criminal cases. To initiate a criminal case in a a STATE court of original jurisdiction you would have to first either file a report with the police for a criminal offense, or speak with the State Prosecutors office to initiate a case.
