Criminal Justice (Courts)

SB 120 prevents courts from charging interest or fees for payment plans when defendants pay court fines, fees, or penalties. It also prohibits courts from requiring low-income defendants with publicly appointed attorneys to reimburse the government for legal costs. The bill directly affects individuals facing court-ordered payments or appointed legal representation due to financial hardship. These changes apply to existing court procedures under Nevada law, removing financial burdens for vulnerable defendants in these specific scenarios.
