Title: Class 1 Municipalities, parolees and probationers of the municipal court to pay a fee to contribute to cost of his or her supervision and rehabilitation, fee not included in state income tax
Summary: HB429 would require income-earning parolees and probationers in Class 1 municipalities to pay a monthly supervision and rehabilitation fee, with the fee exempt from state income tax.
What This Bill Does
It creates a $40 per month fee for parolees or probationers who have income and are under municipal supervision in Class 1 municipalities. The fee is due by the fifth day of each month after the person has income, and employers may deduct it from wages and remit it to the municipal court. If a person is more than two months delinquent, that could be grounds to revoke parole or probation. The fee is excluded from state income tax, and funds collected go to the municipal court corrections fund.

Who It Affects
Parolees or probationers with income under Class 1 municipal supervision: must pay the $40 monthly fee (with possible exemptions for undue hardship) and could face parole/probation revocation for nonpayment.
Employers and payroll systems in Class 1 municipalities: may deduct the fee from employees' net income and remit it to the municipal court by the fifth day of each month; the fee is excluded from the employee's state income tax.

Key Provisions
