A fine amnesty/relicensing program will take place at the Island County District and Municipal Courts of Langley, Coupeville and Oak Harbor during the month of June.

Court officials said the program will offer defendants who have court fines that have been referred to a collection agency, the opportunity to pay off outstanding fines in full by reducing or eliminating the collection costs and interest. In many cases, this will allow a person the chance to get a valid driver’s license.

Those interested in participating in the program can contact the court or the collection agency where the fines have been assigned. For details, call 360-675-5988.
