The Courts will generally give an individual extra time if needed to pay a fine but failure to request same and/or failure to pay can/may result in additional penalties including possible arrest. If a fine was imposed it means you pled guilty to some charge and failing to pay for any reason is not an excuse. However, I repeat the Court just wants to get paid and the matter can be restored to the calender if you wish to seek additional time.
