Teen In Court: My Mom Forgot To Pay Fine

April 4, 2012

A teenage girl appeared in Magistrates Court yesterday [Apr.3], having been arrested and held by Police on a warrant issued for $455 worth of unpaid fines. The fines were levied as a result of road traffic convictions in Magistrates Court on February 5th 2011.

Asked to explain why the fines had not been paid, the teenager said that at the time she was a minor and thought that her mother had taken care of the matter; and that she had subsequently forgotten about it. She said that she would pay the fine but asked for time to pay. The Senior Magistrate gave her until May 3rd 2012 to pay the fines.

    Young Lady if you are big enough to accumulate the fines, you should be big enough to pay. YOU did it NOT your mom. REMEMBER: A man was having a dream and need to use the bathroom! I am sure you can figure out the results.
    Congratulations! but you had to learn responsibility the hard way. This should be a lesson well learned.
    DO NOT TAKE THE LAW LIGHTLY! IT CAN MESS WITH YOU BUT YOU CAN’T MESS WITH IT!!!!!!!
