3 Introduction N.C.G.S. 7A 350 requires the North Carolina Administrative Office of the Courts (NCAOC) to report on criminal cost waivers. Specifically, G.S. 7A 350 provides as follows: 7A 350. Annual report on criminal court cost waivers. The Administrative Office of the Courts shall maintain records of all cases in which a judge makes a finding of just cause to grant a waiver of criminal court costs under G.S. 7A 304(a) and shall report on those waivers to the chairs of the House of Representatives and Senate Appropriations Committees on Justice and Public Safety and the chairs of the Joint Legislative Oversight Committee on Justice and Public Safety by February 1 of each year. The report shall aggregate the waivers by the district in which the waiver or waivers were granted and by the name of each judge granting a waiver or waivers." NCAOC respectfully submits this report pursuant to the legislative mandate. Report Parameters NCAOC completed statewide implementation of the case disposition component of the Criminal Case Information System, Clerk Component (CCIS CC version 5.5) in December All counties used this new CCIS CC component beginning with calendar year 2015; this report includes reported money statuses from CCIS CC during calendar year The attached Table 1 includes criminal court money statuses by county, while Table 2 includes criminal court money statuses by judge. NCAOC is responsible for providing recordkeeping guidelines, training and support to the state's trial courts. During the initial statewide use of the new case disposition component, system users requested additional clarification and guidelines regarding appropriate selection of criminal court money statuses. NCAOC Court Services Division, after consultation with clerks and relevant NCAOC divisions, issued a memorandum identifying working definitions of the available codes and providing guidance as to when to use a specific code. That memorandum, issued on March 31, 2015, is included in the Appendix. The money statuses include waived/remitted, partially waived, not assessed, stricken/entered in error, and civil judgment. All of these money status codes are presented in Table 1 and Table 2 to provide all relevant available data although there may be some slight variation in uses among the counties. The number of cases in which costs were ordered is included to provide a sense of volume of the dispositions in each county (Table 1) or by each judge (Table 2) in which costs, fees, or fines were ordered and no cost, fine, or fee line items were reduced or eliminated NCAOC Report on Criminal Cost Waivers February 1,

4 Criminal Court Money Statuses Criminal court money statuses are either generated by CCIS CC or entered by a clerk. When a defendant pleads guilty or is convicted, based on the convicted offense, CCIS CC enters most applicable costs, fees, and fines as ordered. If any individual cost, fee, or fine is reduced or eliminated, a criminal court monetary status other than ordered must be entered. Based on the order of the presiding judge, the clerk enters changes to the presumptive amounts and enters an applicable money status. The working definitions for money statuses available in CCIS CC are set forth below. : This money status is used when the court orders a monetary obligation due. is the default money status. If the judge is silent on the issue, then, based on case type or status, should be used. /Remitted: This money status is used when the judge waives or remits an individual monetary obligation in its entirety. It is used at a subsequent modification hearing if at the time of the hearing the original monetary obligation is unpaid in its entirety and the judge orders it remitted in its entirety. e: The /Remitted money status should not be confused with waivers of appearance, which sometimes are referred to as waived, waiver, or waivable offenses. A waiver of appearance is a defendant s election to plead guilty or admit responsibility in writing in lieu of appearing in court. It is available in limited circumstances as prescribed by the Conference of District Court Judges pursuant to G.S. 7A 148. : This money status is used when a monetary obligation is reduced but not eliminated. A common example of is when a judge orders probation revoked, activates the suspended sentence, and waives what remains of each cost still owing. In this case, the partial waiver status is used for each line item where money still is owed. : This money status is used when a fee that should not be assessed appears in the Bill of Costs. An example of the proper use of would be the determination by the presiding judge not to assess an additional $ for a subsequent assignment to community service because defendant was previously assigned to community during the same session of court. See G.S. 143B 708(c). : This money status is used when a monetary obligation was recorded in error. It should be used for monetary obligations that would not have accrued but for the error. : This money status is used when the judge orders the monetary obligations due through civil rather than criminal enforcement i.e., the court has ordered that all money obligations due are due through civil enforcement mechanisms only. A civil judgment gives the state indirect means of collecting the obligation NCAOC Report on Criminal Cost Waivers February 1,

5 e: If the court elects to simultaneously order monetary obligations due criminally and civilly, then the clerk should use the status rather than the. In compiling data for Tables 1 and 2, NCAOC Research and Planning Division developed a hierarchy for money statuses in the following order: waived/remitted, partially waived, not assessed, stricken/entered in error, and civil judgment. For example, if a case has both a waived/remitted and a partially waived money status entered, that case would be counted as a case with a waived/remitted money status. It is important to note that because the money statutes are entered on each line item that is reduced or eliminated, a case would be counted as waived/remitted if one cost line item is completely eliminated, but all other cost line items remain ordered. Table 2 contains data by judge on number of cases with criminal court money statuses that are entered with one or more money line items reduced or eliminated. The number of cases where costs were ordered is also included to provide a sense of volume of the dispositions of each judge in which costs, fees, or fines were ordered and no cost, fine, or fee line item was reduced or eliminated. The names listed in Table 2 reflect the names entered in the judge field of CCIS CC, which captures the presiding judicial official at the event (judge, magistrate, or clerk). The significant number of missing/unknown judges is likely due to the fact that dispositions entered in ACIS did not require entry of a judge, so any modifications to judgments entered in ACIS would not have required a judge name to be entered. The totals in Table 2 are higher than those in Table 1 because Table 1 reflects a count of cases with a money status by hierarchical order, while Table 2 indicates the number of events in which a judge entered an order with a money status indicator. For example, if at case disposition, the presiding judge (Judge A) waives one or more cost, fee, or fine line items while ordering some other cost, fines, or fees to be paid, that case would be counted as waived/remitted by Judge A since waived/remitted has the highest hierarchical order of the money statuses. Continuing the example, if the defendant then paid some of what was ordered, then Judge B subsequently waived or remitted the remaining balances due by the defendant, that case would also be counted as a waived/remitted or partially waived by Judge B. Summary NCAOC has established six codes to reflect the status of monetary obligations in criminal cases. This report includes information on criminal court money statuses by county and by judge for calendar year NCAOC Report on Criminal Cost Waivers February 1,

33 APPENDIX MEMORANDUM RE CCIS CC MONEY STATUSES WORKING DEFINITIONS

34 This page intentionally left blank

35 TO: FROM: Clerks of Superior Court Cynthia Easterling DATE: March 31, 2015 RE: CCIS-CC Money Statuses Working Definitions This memo is meant to provide working definitions for the six money statuses available in CCIS-CC. A money status records the monetary portion of the court s order. It reflects what the court has ordered for each criminal court cost. Criminal court costs, sometimes referred to as fees, are located in G.S. 7A-304, Costs in Criminal Actions, and elsewhere in the General Statutes. For purposes of this memo, the term monetary obligation includes any cost or fee that accrues upon conviction for a criminal offense. (For a detailed list of costs that may be assessed following conviction for a criminal offense, please see Court Costs and Fees Chart here.) At this time, monetary statuses are entered at the individual cost level rather than at the case level. For example, if the judge decides to waive costs in a case involving a violation of G.S (d) (window tinting), the clerk will enter / Remitted at least ten times. G.S (d) is a Chapter 20 offense. It also is a misdemeanor and improper equipment offense. A violation disposed of in district court will accrue the following monetary obligations: General Court of Justice, facilities, telephone, law enforcement officer retirement, law enforcement officer training, misdemeanor confinement program, DNA, service of process, Chapter 20 offense, and improper equipment. The clerk will enter /Remitted for each individual monetary obligation. CRIMINAL COURT MONEY STATUSES : This money status is used when the court orders a monetary obligation due. is the default money status. If the judge is silent on the issue, then, based on case type or status, should be used. /Remitted: This money status is used when the judge waives or remits an individual monetary obligation in its entirety. It is used at a subsequent modification hearing if at the time of the hearing the original monetary obligation is unpaid in its entirety and the judge orders it remitted in its entirety. e: The /Remitted money status should not be confused with waivers of appearance, which sometimes are referred to as waived, waiver, or waivable offenses. A waiver of appearance is a defendant s election to plead guilty or admit responsibility in writing in lieu of appearing in court.
