Pay Your Fines Online
Welcome to the Online Ticket Payment Program for the
Fairborn Municipal Court. As part of
an ongoing process of expanding services and incorporating
technology in day-to-day operations, you can now pay eligible
citations online.
Payment of Citation Without Court Appearance (Waivers)
Ohio law allows certain traffic citations to be resolved by a
Traffic Violations Bureau instead of appearing in Court. If
your citation qualifies, payment can be made either in person,
over the phone, via the mail, or online, as long as it is
received by
the Clerk's office prior to the Court date and time which can
be found on the bottom of your citation or by accessing the
record search information. You must pay the full
amount, NO partial payment can be accepted.
Court records are updated every 24 hours, so if you forgot or
missed your court date, you should check the status after that
time. You may still qualify to pay. If you do not qualify for
payment, you MUST appear in person at the Clerk's office as a
warrant has already been issued for your arrest and/or
notification to the Bureau of Motor Vehicles of a license
forfeiture and/or block along with additional fees.
Multiple Violations on Citation(s)
The result of your search will display all cases relevant to
that search. Tickets can contain up to seven (7) separate
charges. If you are paying to waive a court appearance, make
sure you are paying all the charges. Multiple cases per ticket
are listed with letters after the case number (ex. TRD10000001A,
TRD1000001B, TRD1000001C, etc.).
Proof of Insurance
Proof of insurance is a State of Ohio requirement.
If you showed proof of insurance at the time of the offense,
then you
have complied with the State of Ohio requirements, no further
action on your behalf is required. If you did not show proof
of insurance at the time of the offense, the Court is required
to notify the State of Ohio Bureau of Motor Vehicles who in
turn will mail you a request for proof of insurance. Failure
to comply will result in a suspension of your driving
privileges. DO NOT SEND PROOF OF INSURANCE TO THE
COURT AFTER PAYMENT.
