The money could go to the victims of the crime or it can be destroyed.
There aren't any such SOL's on a court ordered fine and sentence.
A court-ordered fine is a monetary penalty imposed by a judge as part of a legal sentence or judgment. It is typically levied against an individual or organization found guilty of a crime or civil violation. The fine is meant to serve as a punishment, deter future offenses, and, in some cases, provide restitution to victims or fund public programs. Failure to pay a court-ordered fine can result in additional legal consequences, including further penalties or imprisonment.
you will be arrested. car towed. new court date... yay
No. A person can only be incarcerated for an act. Not paying court ordered fines and court costs is an example of something that could get a person jailed.
If your case has been adjudicated and you are ordered to pay the fine, you must pay the fine. If you refuse to do so, you can be found in contempt of court, and face penalties.
The money from a speeding fine goes to the local government. This money is used to make improvements within the city and pays for the court costs associated with the case.
SOL's only apply to un-prosecutred offenses. Since you were apparently convicted AND fined, there are no SOL's on court ordered fines.
When you paid your fine - did you actually forfeit your fine or did you elect to have a court date? If they have your money, there should be no warrant action - but you if you are expecting to go to court, I'd call the Court Clerk's office and ask what's going on.
It depends on what the fine is for and how it was imposed. Generally, court ordered penalities/fines cannot be discharged, as that would against public policy in letting you escape without the court/society deemed penalty.
What is the fine for contempt in court in Louisiana civil court?
Here's some advice: Contact the Clerk of The Court that issued the bench warrant. Advise them that you are aware of the bench warrant, but that you now have the money to pay the fine. Ask them if the court would consider withdrawing the warrant if you came in voluntarily and paid the fine amount. I have known of this to happen.
An amercer is a person who amerces - who imposes a fine on something, or who punishes someone for something.
