AGREEYMIENT ~~~1,,,,,,,,,)))~~,`
This reement is made and entered into this ~~ ' da of
Y
1995, by and between Gila Corporation, d b a Municipal
Ser es Bureau, a Texas Corporation [hereinafter, "MSB"], and Kerr
County (hereinafter, the "County"], who agree as follows:
I. ADMINISTRATIVE RESPONSIBILITIES
A. Defendant Contact. MSB will mail notices, telephone or
otherwise contact Defendants with outstanding cases with the County in
order to attempt to notify Defendants of their obligation with the
County. The purpose of the contact is to offer Defendants the
opportunity to resolve their obligation voluntarily, before further
action is contemplated by the County. The County will provide the
name and last known address of the Defendants, all information
regarding the date (s} of the alleged violation(s), the date judgment
was entered against the Defendants in the court having jurisdiction
over the matter or the date the citation was filed, and the amount of
any such fine(s). When appropriate, MSB will attempt to locate
Defendants when the last known address is invalid.
B. Correct Information. MSB will rely completely on the
County to provide correct information about the Defendants' existing
cases and, specifically, about any dollar amount in question, and the
County will immediately update and correct any information it has
provided to MSB. In particular, the County will immediately notify
MSB of any payment or other satisfaction of judgment made directly to
the County or any other action affecting the amount or timing of
monies owed by the Defendants to the County.
C. Accounts Returned. The County will allow MSB a minimum
of 180 days to contact a Defendant about their case. This time period
will begin with the first day of the following month in which the
account was referred to MSB. Upon request by the County, MSB will
cease contacting a Defendant whose case remains outstanding at that
time.
D. L to the County. MSB will refer
Defendants who ~ r obligation with the County other
than by payment ~ ~~ rtment or person designated by the
County to respoi request.
II. COMMISSIONS ON FINES COLLECTED.
A. Basic Commission Rate. For all cases referred by the
County to MSB for collection or resolution for which the County is
paid (in whole or in part), regardless of whether payment is accepted
directly by the County or by MSB on the County's behalf, the County
will pay to MSB, in Travis County, Texas, a 35 percent commission
rate on the amount collected. MSB is not due a fee of any kind if the
case is resolved by a law enforcement agency.
B. Notification of Collections. MSB will notify the County
daily of any monies it receives from Defendants towards payments of
fines. The County, through the Court, may then accept or reject the
payment offered by the Defendant. By the fifteenth of each month, MSB
will provide detailed reporting to the County to identify all cases
known to be resolved during the prior month and to remit monies
collected on the County's behalf. The County authorizes MSB to
endorse negotiable instruments made payable to the County and provided
to MSB in payment of the fines collected and to deduct commissions due
on those fines paid directly to M:~B from the amounts collected by MSB.
III. TERM OF AGREEMENT.
This Agreement will remain in full force and effect until
terminated by either arty in writing to the other at the addresses
set out in this section. If the Agreement is terminated, any case
information then held by MSB will be returned to the County 90 days
after the date of termination.
