Connecticut Courts Offer New Online Payment For Tickets

According to courant.com, drivers who get Connecticut traffic tickets or criminal violation tickets can now pay their fines on their computers. Connecticut's Judicial Branch has recently brought their website up to date, so it could process payments online from credit cards. People can still continue to mail their payments in. Paying a ticket by mail or online is considered a plea of no contest, which the defendant doesn't fight the accusations being made against them. According to Judge Barbara Quinn, the chief court administrator, people can still petition the court over the charges being made and that the judicial branch's new online payment system doesn't take away any one's rights to challenge tickets.
