What are my options in court?

You may plead either guilty or not guilty.

If you plead guilty, a payment plan or pay-by date will be given to you. Court assessments (costs) will be added on to the fine.

If you plead not guilty, the matter will be set for trial. You will not owe anything unless you are found guilty by the court.
