Failure to Pay a Fine

Failure to pay a fine occurs when a person does not pay a court-ordered fine by the specified due date. The fine may be punishment for a criminal conviction or may be because of a traffic violation. Regardless of what the fine was for and what the amount was, failing to pay a fine is still a violation of Florida law. You may face harsh penalties if you do not pay a fine by the due date and do not contact the court to request an extension.

By contacting a skilled criminal defense attorney, you may be able to avoid the consequences of your failure to pay your court-ordered fine. Your attorney may be able to negotiate and discuss your case with a judge, explain your situation, and help you avoid further penalties. Without the help of a lawyer experienced in defending cases involving a failure to pay a fine, you could be left trying to explain a situation to a judge who doesn’t want to hear what you have to say and who has heard the same excuse hundreds of times before.
