Division 3 - Juvenile Detention Facility.
Section 45-2-80.40 - Assessment in Juvenile, Criminal, Quasi-Criminal, and Bond Forfeiture Proceedings.

In Baldwin County, in addition to all other fees and costs prescribed by law, there shall be taxed as costs the sum of twenty dollars ($20) in each juvenile case, criminal case, quasi-criminal case, proceedings on forfeited bail bond or original conviction in any inferior or municipal court of the county except a conviction on a municipal parking violation, in the Circuit Court of Baldwin County or the District Court of Baldwin County, or brought by appeal, certiorari or otherwise to the Circuit Court of Baldwin County, or the District Court of Baldwin County, which costs shall be collected as other costs in such cases are collected by the clerk, or ex officio clerk, of said courts or the register of the Circuit Court of Baldwin County as the case may be. It is the intent of this section that such additional costs shall be taxed on all criminal violations cited for adjudication in the county, whether state, county or municipal in nature, except municipal parking violations. Such additional costs, when collected by the appropriate officials throughout the county, shall be paid into the county treasury to be expended for the care, maintenance, transportation, and other expenses related to juvenile offenders through September 30, 1990. Commencing October 1, 1990, revenues from such additional costs shall be used for the planning, construction, operation, and other expenses directly related to the operation of a county juvenile detention facility. In the event a county juvenile detention facility has not been constructed by October 1, 1991, such revenues shall be deposited in a special trust account in the county treasury until such juvenile detention facility has been constructed and is in operation.
