Bill Summary

The purpose of this bill is to increase the amount of fees to be paid by parolees based on his or her ability to pay, not to exceed $50 per month to defray the costs of supervision, which would be an increase from not to exceed $40 to not to exceed $50.

AI Summary

This bill increases the maximum monthly fee that parolees must pay to cover the costs of their supervision from $40 to $50, with the amount determined based on their ability to pay. The Division of Corrections and Rehabilitation, which is responsible for supervising parolees, will consider factors such as the parolee's income, assets, debts, employment-related expenses, and the potential consequences of denying a fee reduction when determining the appropriate fee. The collected fees will be deposited into a special fund to support parole supervision services.
