Some cases require a Court Appearance and may not be paid using this site. Please check the NOTICE TO APPEAR section on your ticket first to see if it is marked as COURT APPEARANCE REQUIRED. When this is indicated on your ticket you are not eligible to use this site to pay fines and assessments unless the Court has set the amount of fines and assessments by order.
Payment Deadline
Your payment must be made at least two (2) business days prior to your court date. Any payment made using this site after this time period may result in a conviction or other court action against you. If the time period is less than two (2) business days before the court date, the case may not be available for payment using this site.
Driver’s License Number
