§ 34-A §9887-A — Application fee

The department may impose on a person applying for transfer of supervision to another state under this compact an application fee of $100. An application for transfer of supervision may not be denied solely because the person is not able to pay the fee. When a person fails to pay the application fee, the department may refuse to process the application unless the failure to pay was not attributable to the person's willful refusal to pay or to a failure on the person's part to make a good faith effort to obtain the funds required for the payment. Fees received by the department pursuant to this section must be deposited into the department's adult community corrections account, which may not lapse. Fees deposited pursuant to this section must be used to defray costs associated with processing the applications for transfer, including, but not limited to, the purchase of materials, equipment and training for probation officers and administrative costs.
