Elmore County; relating to court costs and booking fees

HB 368 establishes two new fees in Elmore County: a $100 court cost (increasing by $5 annually) for most circuit court cases (excluding traffic), and a $100 booking fee (also increasing by $5 yearly) for defendants convicted or pleading guilty who are booked into the county jail. Both fees apply to all relevant cases, cannot be waived alone, and must be collected by the court clerk. Proceeds from both fees go into the "Enhance Elmore Fund," with county commission directing the funds first toward debt service for judicial complex renovations, then toward maintenance and upgrades once debt is paid. The bill takes effect January 1, 2026, and applies only to Elmore County.
