Text: Per the Orders of March 18 and April 1, 2020, in-person payments to Magisterial District Courts were suspended, but payments could be accepted by mail, electronically (online), or by telephone as permitted in the Magisterial District Court receiving the payment. The effect of that Order is extended until May 11, 2020. To the extent that a payor was or is entitled to a payment determination hearing under these Orders or the extension provided herein, a missed payment or default SHALL NOT RESULT in the issuance of an arrest warrant for failure to make payment, nor shall the non-payment result in driving privileges being suspended, prior to such hearing. On and after May 11, 2020, payments should be accepted by mail, electronically (online), or by telephone as may be permissible in the court receiving the payment, and the use of such means is strongly encouraged. Payments may be made in person, however, if other means are not available to the payor, as may be permissible in the Magisterial District Court receiving the payment pursuant to authorization by the President Judge.
