AI Summary
This bill proposes to amend Section 3 of Chapter 90C of the Massachusetts general laws, specifically adding a provision to Subsection (A), Paragraph (4). The key change is that if a person is found innocent of a civil motor vehicle infraction, the court fee of $25 that was likely paid when the infraction was issued will be fully refunded. This aims to ensure that individuals who are not found guilty of these minor traffic violations do not have to bear the cost of the associated court fees.
