SB 1007 allows the $20 time payment fee assessed on each person paying a court-ordered penalty, fine, or sanction to continue through December 31, 2003.

History

Current law allows for a fee of $20 to be assessed on each person who pays a court-ordered penalty, fine, or sanction on a time payment basis. The fee is deposited into the judicial collection enhancement fund (JCEF). The Supreme Court administers JCEF monies pursuant to ARS section 12-113 to train personnel, improve, maintain and enhance the ability to collect and manage monies assessed or received by the courts including restitution, child support, fines and civil penalties and to improve the court automation projects likely to improve case processing or the administration of justice. The monies may be used for local, regional or statewide projects.

Provisions

· Changes the effective date to change time payment fee from $20 to $12 from and after December 31, 2003.

· Makes technical and conforming changes

SB 1007 mirrors HB 2283, which passed the House on Third Read [2/19 50-8-2-0].
