Pay your ticket bail

California requires a bail deposit (equal to the fine) before a Trial by Written Declaration can be heard. Pay through Compton Courthouse’s online pay portal.

Buy yourself more time — request an extension

Every extra week between the citation and your filing is another week the officer can forget. California courts routinely grant first-time extension requests as a matter of course — you generally do not need a hardship reason.

Typical grant
30 additional days
Method
Online form
Bail deadline
Usually extended along with the response deadline — confirm with the clerk.
