Clinton County Added to Doxpop Fine Payment

We are happy to welcome Clinton County to the Doxpop Fine Payment System. Now motorists who receive a citation while driving through Clinton County on I-65 can pay their fines on-line when they return home. Folks who make their home in Clinton County can save themselves a trip to the courthouse in Frankfort. Doxpop Fine Payment is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Thanks to County Clerk Sherri Crews and her excellent staff for working with us to bring this service to Clinton County.

The Doxpop on-line Fine & Fee Payment Service is now available in 11 Indiana counties, with more being added every week. The service is offered at no cost to participating counties, and is designed to reduce the workload on clerk and court staff while making the unpleasant process of paying a fine a little more palatable to the payers.

Madison and Allen County Information Removed From Doxpop

Two counties and a municipal court that formerly worked with Doxpop have recently moved to the Odyssey system run by the Indiana State Judiciary rather than the local court system.

Because the State Court Administration has refused our request to provide regular access to public court information, we will be removing these courts from our system the week of January 31, 2011. They include the courts of Madison and Allen Counties and the Gas City municipal court.

If you would like to see these courts return to Doxpop, please let your state legislators know of the problems we are encountering in our mission to provide access to public information for professional users. Your voice is important.

Important Note: This county's data was restored to the Doxpop system in November, 2011. Read the details here: http://blog.doxpop.com/2011/11/long-odyssey-doxpops-4-year-quest-pays.html
