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 your citation or by accessing the record search information.
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.
If you are paying a traffic ticket, you understand that you are pleading “Guilty” to all charges against you as listed on the citation, consequently waiving your right to an appearance in Court or to a trial. You further understand that when processed, this will close your case and the Court will forward this information to the Bureau of Motor Vehicles and the appropriate points will be added to your driving record.
Request Payment Plan
If you received a NEW, waiverable traffic offense with a Court date of April 1, 2025, or later, and are unable to pay the citation amount in full before your Court date, you may request a payment plan as an alternative to appearing in Court. To do so, please complete the online request form below prior to your Court date.
Please note:
Citations for “Accidents” and “Texting While Driving” are not eligible for payment plans and a Court Appearance is mandatory.
