Upon conviction, additional costs will be added and steps will be taken to enforce your defaulted fine. For example: information may be provided to a consumer reporting agency and for certain offences, including speeding, your driver's license may be suspended.
If you fail to notify the court office of address changes, you may not receive important notices (e.g., your Notice of Trial or Notice of Fine and Due Date).
