The DCF Receivable includes the following delinquent account types:
In 2007, we added the legal garnishment of wages and bank accounts against those individuals who fail to comply with court orders to pay their fines and fees. Scofflaw As we continue to explore all options to enhance public safety and legal compliance, we will also continue our major collection initiatives involving mailing a FINAL DEMAND notice to the last known mailing address of all the debtors who still owe money for DCF accounts. If this does not generate payment(s) for the delinquent amount owed, the City will refer DCF accounts with a balance to an outside 3rd party collection agency, which may have a substantial negative effect on your personal credit history. In many cases, all of these options may be utilized before and/or after referral to the 3rd party collection agencies. A number of these delinquent DCF cases have already been referred to outside collections and those referred are designated by the words “Collection Agency”. If this is the case for your account, you MUST contact the collection agency directly for confirmation of the actual balance owed. PAID IN FULL accounts are removed from the website on a daily basis upon notification by the collection agency. Accounts assigned to the collection agencies are done so on an alphabetical basis.

The majority of these delinquent accounts relate to unpaid traffic citations and minor offenses. Many of these accounts involve repeat offenders and many cases date back several years. Nearly all DCF cases relate to court ordered fines or default judgments.
