Civil Infractions

许多交通违法行为还不够严重，不足以被归类为犯罪, but serious enough to deserve sanctions other than jail, have been classified by the legislature as civil infractions. 其中包括轻微的交通违规行为，如超速和违规停车.

收到民事违规罚单的人可以在治安官面前举行非正式听证会，除非特别要求举行正式听证会. A person may not be represented by an attorney at an informal hearing. 如对非正式聆讯的裁定不服，可向区域法院法官提出上诉. 罚款金额必须在上诉时作为保释金公布.

A person may request a formal hearing before a District Court Judge. 正式听证会的规则更接近于审判的规则. A formal hearing is bound by the basic substantive law, the statutory provisions or rules of practice, 过程, 恳求, and the rules of evidence. 当事人可以对正式的听证决定向巡回法院提出上诉.

Failure to Comply With an Order or Judgment

如果某人不遵守因民事违法行为而发出的罚款和诉讼费的命令或判决, within the time prescribed by the court, the driver's license shall be suspended until full compliance occurs. In other words, 如果不遵守规定，就会导致违约，并受到制裁——吊销许可证只是其中之一.

When a judgment remains unsatisfied for 28 days or more, 法院给被告最后一次机会来解决这个问题. The court does so by sending the defendant a 14 day notice to comply. If the defendant still fails to comply within the additional 14 days, the court notifies the Secretary of State, who shall suspend the defendant's license. 在被告满足判决并支付执照恢复费之前，暂停一直有效.

如果法院信纳该人有充分理由不出庭，并且该人对指控有正当的辩护，则可应该人的请求撤销缺席判决. To set aside a default judgment the person must complete and file the Motion to Set Aside Default Judgment - Civil Infractions and pay a fee of $5.00.

Suspensions

如果一个人因未出庭(FAC)或未支付判决(FCJ)而被吊销驾驶执照, 在恢复其驾驶特权之前，该人必须出庭和/或支付判决. 这个人还需要购买一张清关卡，以便州务卿恢复他们的执照. The clearance card fee is $45.00.

If the driver's license was suspended by the Secretary of State, 此人必须与州务卿联系以恢复其执照. 除非法院下令暂停，否则法院没有管辖权给予该人有限制的执照. 看到的, Secretary of State.

Driver Responsibility Law

Under Michigan law, 在被定罪或被发现对某些交通违法行为负有责任后，司机可能会面临单独的费用. 这笔费用是在法院施加的任何其他罚款或罚款之外的. 法院向密歇根州政府提供有关交通违规的信息. The Michigan Department of State, 反过来, 将违规记录张贴在驾驶记录上，并将收费信息转发给密歇根州财政部收取. 然后，密歇根州财政部将收费通知邮寄给司机.

司机责任计划要求对下列司机进行经济制裁:

• 在驾驶记录上累积七分或以上的积分，否则
