Where it is in the process

Plain-English Summary

This bill proposes changes to how criminal justice debt, like court costs and fees, is handled in North Carolina. It would require courts to consider a defendant's ability to pay before assessing costs and would prevent imprisonment for failing to pay fines or fees if the person is already serving an active sentence. The bill also aims to modify laws regarding the suspension of driver's licenses for unpaid fines or costs.
