RULE 6.610. FAILURE TO SATISFY PENALTY IMPOSED
AFTER A HEARING; REINSTATEMENT OF
DRIVER LICENSE

(a) Notice of Failure to Comply. If a hearing is held, and
the official determines that the infraction was committed, and a
penalty is imposed but the penalty is not satisfied within the time
set by the court, the clerk shall send notice of such failure to the
department as required by section 318.15(1), Florida Statutes.

(b) Appearance After Notice Sent. If the defendant appears
before the clerk after notice was sent but before the department
suspends the driver license, the clerk shall notify the department
immediately after the defendant satisfies the penalty imposed by the
official together with additional penalties as required by sections
318.15 and 318.18, Florida Statutes.

(c) Reinstatement of License. If the defendant appears
before the clerk after the department suspends the driver license,
the defendant must satisfy the penalty and, any other penalties
required by section 318.15 and 318.18, Florida Statutes. The
official may require the defendant to attend a driver improvement
course, if available, if it was not a part of the penalty originally
imposed. The clerk shall give notice that the defendant is in
compliance upon satisfaction of the penalties, and shall indicate
that the defendant’s driving privileges are eligible for reinstatement.
