Policy for Community Service in Lieu of Fine
You must first be deemed indigent by the Judge to be eligible to perform community service in lieu of a fine. The forms and instructions are available under the court forms link and at the court office. Upon filing a Motion and an Application for Indigency Determination with the court, a hearing will be scheduled. Those defendants currently deemed indigent by this court (i.e. have a public defender appointed to the case) are eligible to perform community service in lieu of a fine. You must have parent permission (if under age 18) and follow rules and procedures set forth. Community Service must be completed at a 501(c)(3) non-profit agency or at an agency from the suggested agency list located on the Court Forms page. It is your responsibility to contact an agency that interests you and meet the guidelines for that agency.
