justice
Under current law, DOA transfers moneys it receives from a justice information fee (JIF) surcharge from its JIF appropriation account to appropriation accounts for DOA, DOJ, DOC, and the circuit courts to fund an interoperable communications system and an automated justice information system and justice information sharing program, to pay for victim notification services and court interpreter fees, and to provide grants for child advocacy centers, increased numbers of uniformed law enforcement officers, and counties that provide alternatives to prosecution and incarceration.
Under the bill, the unencumbered balances on June 30, 2015, and on June 30 of each year thereafter in the appropriation accounts that receive a transfer from the JIF appropriation account are transferred back to the JIF appropriation account.
For further information see the state fiscal estimate, which will be printed as an appendix to this bill.
