Troubled actor Vince Colosimo is headed back to court.

Fresh from appearing on the red carpet at the celebrity studded opening night of the stage musical & Juliet at the Regent Theatre last week, it appears as though the Underbelly star’s next moment in the spotlight will be at Melbourne Magistrates Court.

Fines Victoria will apply for an enforcement warrant against Colosimo in Melbourne Magistrates Court next month as he continues to evade paying traffic fines.

If granted, it will give one of its officers the power to search for and seize his property or vehicles to sell to recoup the outstanding debts.

The Wog Boy Forever star would also be facing an $60.20 administration fee being added to his infringements.

The exact details of the application and size of the fines are unknown.

The unfortunate turn of events comes after Colosimo was last year outed as a serial fine evader, having clocked up a staggering $65,215 in unpaid infringements across the state.

Details of his outstanding 169 fines, some dating back to 2012, were aired when he fronted the Melbourne Magistrates Court in October where he pleaded guilty to drug and unlicensed driving and failing to give his real name to police.

He was slapped with a $2500 fine for the drug and driving offences and was warned by magistrate Olivia Trumble that he needed to sort out the unpaid fines against his name.

“You need to take your head out of the sand and start to deal with these sorts of matters. They won’t go away,” she said.

“Fines Victoria will eventually catch up to you.”
