Residents who owe money to the Crook or Jefferson County circuit courts will be able to pay their bills online.

The new OJD Courts ePay system is part of a statewide effort to offer residents the ability to pay citations and court fees online. Those who owe money can make payments using MasterCard, Visa debit or other credit cards. A $3.50 transaction fee will be charged.

The ePay can be accessed by visiting www.courts .oregon.gov/Crook or www .courts.oregon.gov/Jefferson.
