(a) In addition to all other fees and court costs, in all juvenile, traffic, criminal, and quasi-criminal cases in the juvenile, district, and circuit courts in Cleburne County, a docket fee in the amount of five dollars ($5), hereinafter referred to as a drug and violent crime reduction fee, shall be assessed in each case. The fees, when collected, shall be distributed monthly as follows: One dollar ($1) per case to the Cleburne County Office of the Circuit Clerk and four dollars ($4) per case to the Cleburne County Sheriff's Office.
(b) The drug and violent crime reduction fee shall be collected in all criminal cases where the defendant is adjudged guilty, a bond forfeited, a penalty imposed, or where there is issued any alias or capias warrant of arrest. The drug and violent crime reduction fee shall be in addition to and not in lieu of any other fees or costs. The drug and violent crime reduction fee shall not be waived or remitted unless the defendant proves to the reasonable satisfaction of the sentencing judge that the defendant is not capable of paying the fee within the reasonably foreseeable future.
(c) The drug and violent crime reduction fee disbursed to the sheriff may be expended by the sheriff for any and all expenses incurred by the Calhoun/Cleburne Drug and Violent Crime Task Force law enforcement and in the discharge of the duties of the task force. Should the Calhoun/Cleburne Drug and Violent Crime Task Force ever be dissolved and disbanded by the board of directors, that portion of the fees distributed to the sheriff's department by this section from that time forward shall remain with the sheriff's department to be used for the expenses and operation of that department.
