# Attention Courts using DCS ePAY/Web Cash: Now Accepting Partial Payments for Civil Infractions

Posted by [JIS Service Desk](https://info.courts.mi.gov/jis_info/author/jis-service-desk) on August 21, 2025 at 4:40 PM

This release update impacts those courts who are using the [ePAY website](https://e.courts.michigan.gov/eTix/servlet/EtixMainServlet?Command=Welcome) for the search and payment of District Traffic/Criminal cases. Software updates will be applied to the MiCOURT DCS ePAY application Thursday, September 4, 2025. The ePAY website will not be available for a short period of time during this update beginning at 4:30PM. Please review and distribute this information to court staff.

ePAY Website Updates – Partial Payments Accepted for Civil Infractions

- The [ePAY website](https://e.courts.michigan.gov/eTix/servlet/EtixMainServlet?Command=Welcome) will now accept partial payments for pending and disposed civil infractions. 
    - This is in addition to the already existing ability accepting partial payments for disposed misdemeanors.
    - Any case which is in a warrant status will not be returned with any search results (no change).  
    - Any case or charge in a non-public status will not be returned in any search results (no change).
- Once a civil infraction case(s) is searched for, returned and added to the payment Cart by the customer, the **Amount To Be Paid** field allows the customer to pay the balance in full or modify the amount displayed to a partial payment amount.
- Upon a “Payment Successful” response, the **Amount To Be Paid** field changes to **Amount Paid**.

DCS Application Updates Upon Receipting Civil Infraction Payments

- Partial or full payment accepted via ePAY for a pending (**PEND**) civil infraction result in the following.
- Web Cash program entering the plea code **09** (Admit Responsibility) and disposition code **23** (Judgment Rendered) when generating the Web Register (W1) receipt. 
    - If the balance due is paid in full, the case **Status** changes to closed (**CLSD**). 
          - REMINDER: Any future court dates are automatically removed from the calendar when a case is closed.
    - If a partial payment is made and a balance due remains, the case **Status** changes to a disposed (**DISP**) status and remains open. 
          - The last due/court date is not changed when the payment is processed. Any future notice or late penalty generation (e.g. 14 Day Notice, Suspension, etc.) is based on the last due/court date for the charge.
    - Partial payment accepted for a disposed (**DISP**) civil infraction and there remains a balance due after the payment will result in the case **Status** remaining **DISP**.
    - Payment in full for a remaining balance on a disposed (**DISP**) civil infraction will result in the case **Status** changing to closed (**CLSD**). 
          - REMINDER: Any future court dates are automatically removed from the calendar when a case is closed.

 

Reminder – Web File Inquiry and Update

- Review the **Web Exception Records** daily for transactions which were accepted for payment via ePAY but did not process through the web register as a receipt. Once the reason is identified for the exception and the case updated in the case management system by the court, use **1=Resubmit** to resubmit the payment for processing.
- JIS suggests the court reconcile payment records in your CEPAS/PayPoint account with the DCS Web Register daily.
