as now enacted or hereafter amended, presents to the court clerk evidence
that the person had in effect at the time of the citation liability insurance
as required by RCW 46.30.020, and that person has had no previous violations
of RCW 46.30.020, then the case shall be dismissed and the court clerk shall
be authorized to make appropriate notation of the dismissal in the court file
provided the person has responded timely to the notice of infraction.
(B) If a person who has been cited with a violation of RCW 46.30.020, as
now enacted or hereafter amended, presents to the court clerk evidence that the
person had in effect at the time of the citation liability insurance as required by
RCW 46.30.020, and that person has had prior violations of RCW 46.30.020, then,
upon payment of twenty-five dollars ($25.00) administrative costs, the case shall
be dismissed and the court clerk shall be authorized to make appropriate notation
of the dismissal in the court file provided the person has responded timely to
the notice of infraction.
(C) If a person charged with violation of RCW 46.30.020, as now enacted or
hereafter amended, is able to show evidence that the person has subsequently obtained
liability insurance in conformity with the requirements of RCW 46.30.020, and has
had no previous violation of the same statute, then the penalty shall be reduced to
one hundred and twenty five dollars ($125.00) and upon payment of the one hundred and
twenty five ($125.00) penalty, or arranging a payment agreement with the clerk, the
clerk shall be authorized to enter a finding that the infraction was committed, and make
appropriate notations in the court record, and the person will be relieved of any further
need to appear in court in connection with the infraction, provided the person has
responded to the notice of infraction as required and pays the penalty in full or as
set forth by the payment agreement.
(D) If a person has had a previous violation of RCW 46.30.020, then the person must
pay the penalty in full or in the alternative request a hearing either to contest or
mitigate the notice of infraction within fifteen days of the date the infraction was issued.
(E) The court may, without amendment to this rule, adjust the penalties, fees, or costs
to be imposed under this rule, to be proportionate with changes in the statewide bail
schedule, fees or costs as changes are made by the Supreme Court or the Washington State
Legislature, provided the Presiding Judge so orders and the Order is on file in the
office of the Shelton Municipal Court.
