South Carolina Offers Online Payment of Traffic Tickets

Judicial Case Management System launched statewide helps modernize courts

COLUMBIA, S.C.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--With the Judicial Case Management System now available in each of South Carolina’s 46 counties, traffic tickets issued anywhere in the state can be paid online. Online payment processing is just one feature of the Judicial Case Management System, which serves as a central online repository of comprehensive state-wide court information including case status and case history. Implemented by the South Carolina Judicial Department (SCJD), the system advances the vision of South Carolina Chief Justice Jean Toal for modernizing the courts through technology.

Available at http://www.sc.gov/Pages/CourtPayments.aspx, online payments can be made using a Visa, MasterCard, or Discover debit or credit card. Online payment information is also included on the back of the standard South Carolina traffic citation.

The payment processing feature uses the State of South Carolina Web portal provided by South Carolina Interactive, a Columbia-based subsidiary of eGovernment firm NIC (Nasdaq: EGOV), and allows courts in all South Carolina counties to accept credit card payments in person at the court or 24 X 7 via the Internet.
