Our Compliance/ Payment Plans office clerks are available to assist defendants in the set-up and management of criminal payment plans and with court ordered community service guidance. Our payment plans offer the flexibility of satisfying the court costs, fines and fees by making monthly payments to the Clerk of the Courts. A $25 administrative fee is charged at the time the plan is established.
By entering into a payment plan with our office, the defendant agrees to make monthly payments until the total amount of costs, fines and fees are paid in full. Defendants can pay in person during normal business hours at any office location, pay online or pay over the phone at (904) 531-3325. You may also call the Compliance Department at (904) 278-4772 with any questions during normal business hours.
*Non-criminal traffic cases are eligible for a three-month payment plan, and only for citations not addressed by the completion of the Traffic School option.
If mailing payments (no cash) each month, use this mailing address, please:
Clay County Clerk of Court and Comptroller’s Office, Attention: Compliance Department, P.O. Box 698, Green Cove Springs, Florida 32043.
Failure to make payments as agreed under the Payment Plan Agreement may result in the suspension of the defendant’s driver’s license and the case being sent to a third-party collection agency, whereby, an additional 25% in fees is assessed.
