Re: court costs
I'm not sure of what kind of case you are dealing with. If this was a summary offense and the punishment was a fine, that's different than if this was, for example, a DUI where you were sentenced to a period of probation. If it was a misdemeanor and there was a period of probation, you have committed a technical violation by not paying and you should get in touch with the probation officer assigned to your case. If it was a Summary Offense and you were fined, you should contact the office of the Magisterial District Judge that imposed the fine.
