The Court: Dandenong Magistrates’ Court
The Date: February 2025
The Charges:

Enforcement Warrant Infringement Fines – Unpaid Fines Totalling $82,000.00;
Up to 415 days imprisonment

The Facts:

Our client incurred all fines, with $79,000.00 of these being toll fines. When the fines were first incurred, our client was young on a low paying job and had just moved out of home. When our client first found out about the fines, she tried to open an account with Citylink but owed too much money for them to let her open an account. This led to her continuing to get tolling fines for several years.

Result in Court:

In court, we explained our client’s circumstances and acknowledged how she had made attempts to open a Citylink account but had been denied. The court discharged all tolling fines and imposed a fine of $2,500.00, which was the remaining amount of fines not relating to tolls. Our client was very relieved with this large and significant reduction in her fines.

She is paying off the $2500 by monthly instalments over 2 years.
