You MUST appear in person to fill out an application for Deferred Disposition. If you qualify, you will be required to pay the State Costs and a Special Expense Fee. The State Costs and Special Expense Fee will be an amount equal to the fine and costs that are set for the alleged offense. Based on your answers to the application, you may or may not be required to take a Driving Safety Course as a term and condition of Deferred Disposition. If you hold or held a Commercial Drivers License at the time of the alleged offense, you do not qualify for Deferred Disposition.
PLEASE NOTE: If your case is past due, or if it has been forwarded to our Collection Agency, or if it is in warrant status, you may still apply for Deferred Disposition. However, the amount for the Special Expense Fee will be the maximum amount allowed by state law, and it will be due when the request for Deferred Disposition is made.
If you would like to know what the total amount required for Deferred Disposition will be prior to your coming in and completing an application, you may check the link for Fine Information and see the fine amounts listed for the most common violations. You may also dial 972/941-2199 and then PRESS 3 for list of the most common violations. These fine amounts will be for violations that are not past due. If you do not find your specific violation, you may press “0” to speak with a court representative.
DO NOT pay the Deferred Disposition costs online. The use of the "Pay Citation" program will result in a conviction on your driving record.
