What is OATH?
The Office of Administrative Trials and Hearings (OATH) is New York City's central administrative tribunal. It conducts hearings for violations issued by City agencies and provides fair, independent adjudication.
When you receive a violation from any NYC agency, you may have the right to contest it at an OATH hearing. Understanding the specific infraction codes and their penalties is crucial for mounting an effective defense.
