§ 24356 Security Amount Adjustment

• •The government can change the amount of money or security you have to pay if they think it's too much or too little.
• •They have to tell you 10 days before they change it.
• •If you paid too much, they will give the extra money back to you.
• •You can swap the type of security you use (like changing from cash to a bond).

You got into a car crash and the court said you have to pay $5,000 to cover damages. Later, they realize $5,000 is too much and lower it to $3,000.

The government can change the amount you have to pay if they think it's unfair. They will tell you 10 days before they do it, and if you already paid, they will give you the extra $2,000 back.
