Even if that were true, it wouldn't mean that refusing to pay the fine was against the law. It would merely be an example of how contempt of court is. NSW legislation goes into considerable detail about what happens when people don't pay fines. No mention of contempt of court there. I haven't checked, but I expect other states have similar legislation. Sylvia.

Over in WA the last I heard is they take your license and pass the fine to fine enforcement, which is nothing more than a glorified debt collection agency. Nothing criminal about it.

But there was a time not so long ago when non-payment of a fine could lead to imprisonment, as an every-day method of discharging the outstanding fine. In NSW, that is no longer the case - see http://www.austlii.edu.au/au/legis/nsw/consol_act/fa199669/s125.html . The arrangement now is that other inducements are made to enforce payment of the fine. >> NSW legislation goes into considerable detail about what happens when >> people don't pay fines. No mention of contempt of court there. I >> haven't checked, but I expect other states have similar legislation. Probably. They probably also have reciprocal arrangements to deal with situations of fine-defaulters going to other jurisdictions in Australia. > Over in WA the last I heard is they take your license and pass the > fine to fine enforcement, which is nothing more than a glorified debt > collection agency. Nothing criminal about it. Sounds quite reasonable. Far better than locking up the fine-defaulter for non-payment.

If the court orders that the fine be paid and you still refuse to pay it, you are in contempt of court which can result in a prison sentence. Noodle said "Refuse to pay your fines" In fact he said "REFUSE TO PAY YOUR FINES!" If you take his advice that'll be were you end up. |
