Excess Highway FinesOriginal and Amended Returns

Original Return

This report must be filed when your city or county's current year’s fines and special expenses exceed 30% of the previous year’s revenue less federal funds and bond proceeds.

Highway Fines
Fines collected for offenses under V.T.C.A., Transportation Code, Title 7, Vehicles and Traffic and fines collected under Vernon's Ann. C.C.P. art. 45.051/ 45.0511, for offenses under V.T.C.A., Transportation Code, Title 7, Vehicles and Traffic.

Amended Returns

In most cases, you can file an amended tax or fee return using Webfile. An amended return changes the data previously filed. Previously entered data will not be reflected when filing an amended return.

Amended returns resulting in a credit balance or refund cannot be submitted through Webfile.

Amended Returns resulting in a refund must be submitted on the appropriate form with the word “Amended” written across the top. You must also include a detailed document stating the grounds on which the claim is founded.

The completed documents may be emailed to court.costs@cpa.texas.gov or faxed to 888-908-9997.
