AS 12.55 is amended by adding a new section to read: 07 Sec. 12.55.041. Correctional facility surcharge. (a) In addition to any fine 08 or other penalty prescribed by law, a defendant who pleads guilty or nolo contendere 09 to, or is convicted of, a crime under state law shall pay a correctional facility surcharge 10 if, in connection with the crime, the defendant 11 (1) was arrested and taken to a correctional facility, regardless of 12 whether the defendant was released or admitted to the facility; or 13 (2) is sentenced to serve a term of imprisonment. 14 (b) The court shall impose a single surcharge under (a) of this section on a

01 defendant being sentenced for one or more crimes in a single judgment. The 02 surcharge is 03 (1) $100 if the judgment includes a sentence for a felony; 04 (2) $50 if the judgment does not include a sentence for a felony. 05 (c) If the court places the defendant on probation, the court shall order, as a 06 condition of probation, that the defendant pay an additional correctional facility 07 surcharge of $100. The additional surcharge shall be suspended, but later imposed if 08 the defendant's probation is revoked and, in connection with the probation revocation, 09 the defendant 10 (1) was arrested and taken to a correctional facility, regardless of 11 whether the defendant was released or admitted to the facility; or 12 (2) is ordered to serve a term of imprisonment for the probation 13 revocation. 14 (d) The court shall include a surcharge imposed under this section in the 15 judgment of conviction. For a surcharge that is not paid by the person as required by 16 this section, the state shall seek reimbursement from the person's permanent fund 17 divided as provided under AS 43.23.065. For purposes of collection and priority of 18 attachment under AS 43.23.065, a surcharge imposed under this section is accounted 19 for in the same manner as a cost of imprisonment under AS 28.35.030(k) and 20 28.35.032(o). 21 (e) In this section, "correctional facility" has the meaning given in 22 AS 33.30.901. 23 * Sec. 2.

01 sureties, in the amount of $1,250, or deposit in the registry of the court cash in the 02 amount of $1,250.
