What it would have done

Summary by the , the Legislature's nonpartisan drafting office. It's their wording, not ours.

Under current law, a county sheriff collects various court-related fees, including a fee for the service of process, a fee for the seizure of property, a fee for an eviction, and a fee for the sale of foreclosed real property.

This bill permits a sheriff to collect an administrative fee of up to $25 to cover the costs of fingerprinting from a person who has requested that he or she be fingerprinted, such as a person who requires fingerprints as part of his or her employment. The bill also allows the sheriff to charge the same fee for conducting various administrative actions related to a person who is arrested, including fingerprinting or photographing the person, filing information about the person, and gathering other identifying information from the person. If an arrested person paid the fee, the county must reimburse the person if the person is not charged with a crime or is acquitted or if the charges are dismissed.
