1. Any person convicted of an offense punishable by a fine of ten dollars ($10.00) or more or by incarceration, excluding parking and standing violations, or any person forfeiting bond when charged with such an offense, shall be ordered by the court to pay seven dollars ($7.00) as a separate penalty assessment (CLEET) and three dollars ($3.00) as a separate fingerprint fee (AFIS fees) (OSBI), which shall be in addition to, and not in substitution for, any and all fines and penalties otherwise provided for by law for such offense.
