The court rejected the defendant's request to waive court fines and costs imposed by a final judgment. The defendant argued financial hardship, but the court noted that too little time had passed since the judgment to assume significant changes in their financial situation. Furthermore, the court emphasized that enforcement proceedings had not yet begun, leaving the possibility of payment plans intact.
