One Day Only – Save 27% On Past Due Traffic Tickets, Court Costs, Fines, Fees

April 17, 2015

If you have unpaid traffic tickets, court costs, fines, or fees, Pam Childers, the Escambia County Clerk of the Circuit Court & Comptroller, is giving you a break by putting the brakes on collection fees – but only for this Saturday.

The Clerk’s office is offering convenient Saturday hours and opening to the public for “Operation Green Light” on April 18.  This special program allows anyone with unpaid traffic tickets, or misdemeanor or felony court costs, fines, or fees to make payment in full without paying the 27 percent collections surcharge.  You will also be able to restore your driving privileges which may have been suspended for non-payment once all outstanding traffic tickets, court costs, fines, and fees are paid.

There are thousands of people in Escambia County who have unpaid traffic tickets, court costs, fines, and fees.  As a result, many are driving with suspended licenses.  Operation Green Light is a chance for people to pay their traffic tickets, court costs, fines, and fees without paying the 27 percent collections surcharge and restore their driving privileges.  By opening on a Saturday, we’re making it convenient for those who need it.

Late fees will not be waived, but anyone paying traffic tickets, court costs, fines, and fees during Operation Green Light won’t have to pay collections surcharges.  That’s a savings of $55.62 on a $206 ticket.

Operation Green Light is scheduled from 9:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. on Saturday, April 18, at the main courthouse at:  M. C. Blanchard Judicial Building, 190 West Government Street, Pensacola.

Payments in full will be accepted by cash, personal or cashier’s check, money order, or credit card.

    Mr. Enfinger.
    I hope your comment is meant to be comedy.
    If not, paying your court imposed fines will keep you, your driver’s license and hopefully your CAP LOCK button unlocked up.

    Here again the North End has been left out, why didn’t they collect these fees for North End at. OUR. Courthouse in Century. Wish we could be counted in Alabama.

    Punishments like probation, license suspensions and fines are the alternative to putting people jail. Would you prefer this “racket” or just have received jail time for whatever it was that you did?
