If you do not pay your fine on your court date, the court may:
- Impose late fees: Arizona law requires an additional $20.00 penalty if the fine/sanction is not paid in full by your
appearance date or on your sentencing date. Other late fees may be imposed in accordance to local ordinance.
- Suspend your driver license and that information is available to your auto insurance company, which may cause your rates to
increase.
- Issue a warrant for your arrest and your warrant will go into the regional law enforcement warrant system.
- Notify a credit bureau about your bad debt and place your future credit at risk.
- Seize your wages, tax refunds, bank accounts or personal property such as your car if nonexempt.
- Notify a collection agency to take action to collect the unpaid balance.
