Can I get a time extension to pay a traffic ticket?

Yes, you can get a time extension to pay a traffic ticket in New Jersey. Depending on the violation, the court may grant you an extension. If you are unable to pay the full amount due, you may be able to request an extension to pay your ticket in installments. To apply for a time extension, you must complete and submit a form called a “Motion for Extension of Time” to the court. This form must be completed and delivered to the court in the county or municipality where the ticket was issued, and is available online or at the court. The form can also be picked up in person at the court’s office. The court will review your request and may grant a time extension if you can show that you are unable to pay the full amount due, or if you can demonstrate that repaying in installments will allow you to pay the ticket. The court will usually set a deadline for completion of the payment plan. It is important to note that you are still responsible for any fines, court costs, or other fees associated with the ticket during the time extension, and late payments can add more charges to your ticket. Additionally, if you fail to comply with the payment plan as set by the court, the court may take further action, such as suspending your license and issuing an arrest warrant.
