Web Payments

     If you are paying all of your charges in full on or before your court date, please visit our payment Web site at                       Tucson Court Web Pay.  If you wish to show proof in order to qualify for a reduced fine, you must appear in                        person with the proof or mail a copy of the proof to the Court on or before your court date.

If you do not pay your fine on your court date, the court may:

       Impose late fees (Arizona law requires a $20.00 additional 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 with 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 who will take action, on behalf of the court, to collect the unpaid balance.
