                        STATE PRISON AND COUNTY JAILS

                          STATE BOARD OF CORRECTIONS
    20-225.  PAYMENT FOR COST OF SUPERVISION. Any person under state probation
or parole supervision shall be required to contribute not more than fifty
dollars ($50.00) per month as determined by the board of correction. Costs of
supervision are the direct and indirect costs incurred by the department of
correction to supervise probationers and parolees, including tests to
determine drug and alcohol use, books and written materials to support
rehabilitation efforts, and monitoring of physical location through the use of
technology. Any failure to pay such contribution shall constitute grounds for
the revocation of probation by the court or the revocation of parole by the
commission for pardons and parole. The division of probation and parole in the
department of correction may exempt a person from the payment of all or any
part of the foregoing contribution if it finds any of the following factors to
exist:
    (1)  The offender has diligently attempted but been unable to obtain
employment.
    (2)  The offender has an employment handicap, as determined by a physical,
psychological, or psychiatric examination acceptable to the division of
probation and parole.
Money collected as a fee for services will be placed in the probation and
parole receipts revenue fund, which is hereby created in the dedicated fund in
the state treasury, and utilized to provide supervision for clients. Moneys in
the probation and parole receipts revenue fund may be expended only after
appropriation by the legislature.
