has been properly served on the Prosecuting Attorney.
The Prosecuting Attorney does not object to the granting of the Petition for Traffic Amnesty.
The Prosecuting Attorney has waived any objection to the Petition for Traffic Amnesty.
or

The Court now DENIES the Petition for Traffic Amnesty.
The Court now finds that the Petitioner is a qualified person under IC 9-33-4, and the

This Court orders that the amount of above listed unpaid fees owed by petitioner be
reduced by 50%.
Some or all of the above unpaid fees consist of a driving privileges reinstatement fee.
Therefore, the petitioner is entitled to driving privileges reinstatement after:
(1) paying 50% of the otherwise required driving privileges reinstatement fee to
the Bureau of Motor Vehicles;
(2) providing proof of financial responsibility of the court (as set forth in IC 9-25-
2-3); and
(3) the person is determined not to be otherwise ineligible to have the person’s
driving privileges reinstated.
When payment of the reduced driving privileges reinstatement fee is complete, Petitioner shall
provide proof of financial responsibility to both the court and the Bureau of Motor Vehicles to
process the driver privilege reinstatement.
This order is being issued under IC 9-33-4 and is not a conviction, finding of guilt, or finding of
liability.
