Under existing law, the Clay County Commission is authorized to impose a fee up to $50 on each civil and criminal case filed in the circuit or district court, or any municipal court in Clay County.
This bill would remove the Clay County Commission's authorization to impose this fee on any case filed in a municipal court in Clay County and authorize the governing body of a municipality to impose the same fee on each civil and criminal case filed in the municipal court.
This bill would also provide that the municipal court fee would be retained by the municipality where collected.
