§ 27585 Administrative Penalty Judgment Entry

Key Takeaways

  • •The court will quickly make it official without charging extra fees.
  • •This is only after all other appeals and reviews are done.

Example

You get a big fine for breaking a rule at work, and you appeal but lose. The government then takes the decision to court.

The court will automatically make the fine official, and you’ll have to pay it. No extra court fees will be added.
