Fines

The amount of fine assessed by the court is affected only by the facts and circumstances of the case.

Mitigating circumstances may lower the fine, even if you are found guilty. On the other hand, aggravating circumstances may increase the fine. Please see Payment Options for an explanation on how to pay your citation.

If you are unable to pay the fine and cost for any reason you should come to court to explain those reasons to the Judge. Fill out this Financial Information Form for Alternate Sentencing Request and submit it to the Judge who will determine whether you should pay.  Completed forms should be submitted at the Addison Municipal Court building.
