A. Court Costs: Pursuant to 11 Oklahoma Statutes section 27-126, as amended, court costs shall be no more than thirty dollars ($30.00) plus witness and mileage fees, per case and may be added to the fine. All funds collected shall be deposited in the appropriate fund.
B. Additional Fees, Costs, And Assessments: In addition to the court costs collected pursuant to subsection A of this section, for every fine, deferral fee in lieu of a fine, or bond forfeiture collected by the municipal court of the city, additional local and state mandated fees, costs, and penalty assessments shall be collected as provided in 20 Oklahoma Statutes sections 1313.2, 1313.3, 1313.4, as amended, and as provided in other applicable state law and in this code. The city treasurer, or other individual designated by the city council, shall forward mandated reimbursements to the state on a quarterly basis unless otherwise required by law.
C. Costs Related To Prisoner Confinement:
1. Notwithstanding other costs allowed pursuant to this section and this code, the municipal court at its discretion may require that a person confined in the county jail, both before or after conviction, upon conviction, or receiving a deferred sentence in lieu of a fine, pay the contract account owed by the city to the county sheriff's office for the cost of incarceration of the individual.
2. The municipal court, in its discretion, in addition to the contract amount paid to the county sheriff's department for the incarceration of the individual convicted, may also assess additional cost associated with medical care, dental care, psychiatric services or other costs expended for the health services provided to the municipal prisoner.
3. The municipal court shall not assess the cost hereinabove described, if, in the discretion of the court, such costs would impose a manifest hardship on the person, or, in the discretion of the court, the property of the person is needed for the maintenance and support of the prisoner's immediate family.
4. The cost of incarceration shall be paid by the inmate to the city and shall be collected by the clerk of the municipal court. The clerk of the municipal court shall then pay the monies collected to the city treasurer for payments as required pursuant to 22 Oklahoma Statutes section 979a.
D. Collection Fees: Any person convicted of any offense or misdemeanor who fails to pay all or a portion of any penalties, fines, deferral fees, assessments, fees, warrants, court costs, or other applicable costs whose unpaid balance is referred to a collection agency shall pay a collection fee in an amount not to exceed thirty five percent (35%) per offense, in addition to the remainder of the unsatisfied monetary obligation.
