A waiverable offense is a minor misdemeanor that carries a fine that can be paid without making a court appearance. The fine is paid to the Violations Bureau of the court. If you choose to make a court appearance, the payout amount no longer applies. The Mayor will determine the fine amount and court costs will be added to that amount.
If you have unpaid fines or have failed to appear for a court case, you may have a warrant block or license forfeiture on your driver’s license. Please call us to see what you need to do to get that block or forfeiture removed. If you have already been to court for your case and have a past due balance, it is possible that your account has been turned over to the Ohio Attorney General’s Office for collections. You will need to pay your balance in full through their office before any blocks will be removed.

If you are unable to pay your fines and court costs in full on the day of your hearing, you may be eligible to set up a payment plan through the Clerk of Courts. Please note that failure to comply with the terms of the Payment Plan Agreement or failure to make payments may result in your case being referred to the Ohio Attorney General’s Office for collections.
If you fail to appear in court or pay out the ticket by your scheduled court date, a notice of a new court date will be mailed to the address on file with the court. If you have missed two court dates, a bench warrant will be issued and a $50.00 warrant fee will be added to the fines and costs. If you have a bench warrant it is possible that a block against your registration privileges has taken place, or a suspension against your driving privileges.
The court must report that there was no insurance in effect at the time of the citation to the Bureau of Motor Vehicles (BMV). The BMV may place a suspension against your driver’s license for a period of 90 days to 2 years depending on prior offenses for driving without insurance.
Please visit https://www.bmv.ohio.gov/ or contact the BMV at 844-644-6268 for further information.
If you did not present proof of insurance or other financial responsibility at the time of violation, then you must do so when paying out or appearing in court. This proof must cover the vehicle driven and date of the violation.
