General principle - if there is no court involved there is no criminal conviction or civil judgement.What is a Fixed Penalty Notice?
1. The FPN is not a fine.
2. The FPN simply discharges your liability to conviction for which the notice was issued.
3. The FPN is not an admission of guilt, it only removes the possibility of you receiving a record of Criminal Conviction.
4. Receiving a penalty notice does not mean that you have received a criminal conviction. The FPN is given instead of a prosecution in court.
5. If you have received an FPN, you have 14 calendar days to pay the penalty or to request a hearing.
6. Failure to pay a penalty may result in a higher fine imposed by the court or imprisonment.
