The Billing/Deferral Unit establishes time payment accounts for persons who have filed an application requesting to have filing fees deferred. Accounts are also established for jury fee judgments, incarcerated persons who have filed cases with the court, businesses that have established commercial accounts, complex litigation cases that require additional fee amounts and accounts for persons that have been fined by the court as a result of their failure to comply with an order of the court. This unit also processes payments received in these matters as well as submitting non-paying parties to the Tax Intercept program so that tax return funds may be applied to debts due to the court.

The Billing/Deferral Unit also prepares the itemized claim sent to the Department of Corrections for prisoner expenses as authorized by ARS 31:227 (A).

Payments in these matters must include the account number and may be mailed to:

Clerk of the Court
Billing/Deferral Unit
P.O. Box 25426
Phoenix, AZ 85002
