Relating to the amount of the reimbursement fee paid by a defendant for a peace officer's services in executing or processing an arrest warrant, capias, or capias pro fine.

Contracts

Review Inter-local Agreements or Memorandums of Understanding (MOUs) with municipal or county governments. Ensure "Fee Remittance" clauses do not inadvertently waive your department's right to claim this increased fee. Update contracts with third-party collection vendors to pursue the $75 rate for eligible cases.

Hiring/Training

Train administrative staff and commissioned officers on the strict 15-day filing window. The law requires the executing agency to request the fee from the court not later than the 15th day after execution. Failure to meet this deadline results in automatic forfeiture of the revenue to the agency that processes the warrant (typically the Sheriff or Clerk).

Reporting & Record-Keeping

Implement a specific logging system to prove the "Request for Imposition of Fee" was transmitted to the court within the statutory limit to prevent revenue disputes. Maintain dual-track accounting:

• Schedule A ($50): For offenses committed *before* September 1, 2025.
• Schedule B ($75): For offenses committed *on or after* September 1, 2025.

Fees & Costs

For fleet and logistics operators covering driver legal costs, budget for a 50% increase (from $50 to $75) in warrant resolution fees per incident.
