HB597 adds a $100 service fee for Marshall County Sheriff's Office when serving a failure-to-appear warrant, with the money split among law enforcement, the court clerk, and the county jail fund.
It creates an additional $100 fee charged to defendants for the sheriff's service of a failure-to-appear warrant in Marshall County, to be collected like other court costs after conviction and may be waived for good cause. The fee revenue is divided as $35 to the Sheriff's Office Law Enforcement Fund, $15 to the circuit court clerk, and $50 to the Marshall County General Fund for jail operations, maintenance, and debt service. The act becomes effective on the first day of the third month after it is passed and approved.
