Eight of nine residents were ordered to pay monies to the court after they were apprehended and charged over the weekend for failing to comply with the 11pm-5am curfew.
Just yesterday six residents were fined a total of $2200 for the same charge. They all were caught on American road between 11:05pm Friday night and 12:45am Saturday morning.
Today, nine more motorists from the same stop and search came before Chief Magistrate Joanne Walsh and pleaded guilty to the complaint.
A total of $2800 is now owed to the state.
One man told the court that he left the Gun range bar near Potworks Dam at around 10:30 pm and had to take two persons home. He was fined $350 with a default of one month in imprisonment.
Meanwhile, the other two passengers in his vehicle- coming from the same bar- were fined $250 each with the same default jail time.
Another man who claimed that he left home to fix his girlfriends vehicle which refused to start and was stuck at the Town House Megastore, was ordered to pay the same monies.
The court also heard from a man whose excuse was that he was stuck in traffic. He now owes $500.
Two other men who merely said that they were on their way home at the time of being stopped were both fined $500 each and should they fail to pay, they will spend 3 months behind bars.
A woman who accepted responsibility and apologized for committing the crime was just fined $200 with a fault of one month.
The ninth individual, a woman of Spanish descent, was reprimanded and discharged upon informing the Magistrate about her car trouble which he claimed to have photographic evidence of.
