AN ACT WAIVING COURT FEES FOR CRIMINAL RECORDS PROVIDED TO FEDERAL PUBLIC DEFENDERS
SUMMARY: This act eliminates the requirement that the Office of the Federal Public Defender pay the fee specified in CGS § 52-259 for any certified copy of any criminal record. That statute does not explicitly mention fees for copies of criminal records, but it requires a $25 fee for a certified copy of any judgment file.
EFFECTIVE DATE: July 1, 2008
BACKGROUND
Related Law
The law exempts the Immigration and Naturalization Service from paying these fees (CGS § 52-259a(b)(1)).
