257-C - Probation administrative fee.

* § 257-c. Probation  administrative fee. 1. Notwithstanding any other
  provision of law, every county and the city of New  York,  may  adopt  a
  local  law  requiring  individuals  currently  serving  or  who shall be
  sentenced to a period of probation upon conviction of  any  crime  under
  article  thirty-one  of  the vehicle and traffic law to pay to the local
  probation  department  with  the  responsibility  of   supervising   the
  probationer  an  administrative  fee  of  thirty  dollars per month. The
  department shall waive all or part of such fee  where,  because  of  the
  indigence  of  the offender, the payment of said surcharge would work an
  unreasonable hardship on the person  convicted,  his  or  her  immediate
  family,  or  any  other  person  who  is  dependent  on  such person for
  financial support.
    2. The provisions of subdivision six of section 420.10 of the criminal
  procedure  law  shall  govern  for  purposes  of   collection   of   the
  administrative fee.
    3.  The  probation administrative fee authorized by this section shall
  not constitute nor be imposed as a condition of probation.
    4. In the event of non-payment of any fees which have not been  waived
  by  the  local  probation department, the county or the city of New York
  may seek  to  enforce  payment  in  any  manner  permitted  by  law  for
  enforcement of a debt.
    5.  Monies  collected  pursuant  to this section shall be utilized for
  probation services by the local probation department. Such moneys  shall
  not be considered by the division when determining state aid pursuant to
  section  two  hundred  forty-six  of the executive law. Monies collected
  shall not be used  to  replace  federal  funds  otherwise  utilized  for
  probation services.
