Bill overview
House Bill 2028 modifies Arizona law regarding court assessments and allows defendants who are unable to pay fines or other monetary obligations to perform community restitution instead. Specifically, if a defendant is experiencing homelessness and is indigent, the court can order them to perform community restitution in lieu of paying certain assessments. This bill clarifies that certain assessments and surcharges are exempt from this alternative payment option. It aims to provide a pathway for individuals facing financial hardship to fulfill their court-ordered obligations.
