F.A.R.E

The Fines/Fees and Restitution Enforcement (FARE) Program is a statewide initiative of the Arizona Judicial branch. The program was developed in 2003 to assist Arizona courts with the compliance of monetary court orders. Courts are given the ability to assign outstanding debt associated to civil traffic, criminal traffic and criminal violations. The program is a public/private partnership between the Administrative Office of the Courts (AOC), the Motor Vehicle Division, Arizona Department of Revenue, Arizona Lottery, Arizona Department of Gaming and a private vendor. 

Program Goals:

• Compliance with and Respect for Court Orders and the Law. Provide courts with additional tools to enforce court orders.
• Enhanced Customer Service. Provide citizens with easily accessible and additional information on what is expected for compliance, and the sanctions for failure to take the appropriate action.                
• Consistency and Uniformity in Case Processing. Make justice more equitable by more consistent enforcement of court orders statewide.
• Efficiencies. Outsourcing select parts of the collections process will reduce routine, nonjudicial functions, allowing court staff to focus their time on customer service and case processing.
