Failure to Pay a Forfeiture

There may be serious consequences if you fail to follow the Court’s orders or pay the forfeiture. The Court may commit a person to jail for not more than ninety (90) days; or, the Court may order a suspension of your driver’s privileges (license) for up to ONE (1) year [two (2) years if you are a juvenile], or until the forfeiture is paid. The Court can also refer your debts to the State Debt Collection or Tax Intercept. If you cannot pay the forfeiture due to poverty, you may request a hearing for a poverty determination.
