Penalty summaries are a useful resource for a busy duty solicitor and provide easy reference for the maximum penalties imposed for offences. Brief and comprehensive penalty summaries are available in the Penalty Summaries chapter.

** Please note: Always check the currency of the summaries - use them only as a starting point and check for recent amendments to penalties in the legislation

Legislation Interpretation Act 2021 (SA) s 54 for divisional penalties and expiation fees [see also Magistrates Court Act 1991 (SA) - Appendix for divisional penalties and expiation fees].
