This bill died with 2009-2010 Regular Session. It reached “To Executive” and never advanced before the session ended, so it can no longer move — a new version would have to be reintroduced in the current session.

This bill is no longer active — its legislative session has ended, so there is no live prognosis. It would have to be reintroduced in the current session to move again.

Summary

(1) Existing law, the Uniform Federal Lien Registration Act, governs the filing of notices of liens, certificates, and other notices affecting federal tax liens or other federal liens. The act requires a filing officer to issue, upon request, a certificate showing whether there is on file any notice of a federal lien or certificate or notice affecting any federal lien filed pursuant to the act or as specified. If the filing officer is a county recorder, the fee set by the filing officer may not exceed $15 for a certificate for each name searched. This bill would delete the limitation on the fee that may be charged by a county recorder acting as a filing officer for purposes of the act. (2) Existing law authorizes the county recorder of each county to charge a fee of $4 for the first page and $3 for each additional page for recording and indexing every instrument, paper, or notice required or permitted to be recorded, as specified. This bill would increase the maximum fee for the first page to $10, and would make other conforming changes. (3) Under existing law, every defendant, when represented by appointed counsel, is required to be assessed a registration fee not to exceed $25, but the fee is not required of any defendant that is financially unable to pay it. Under existing law, these provisions are operative in a county only upon the adoption of a resolution by the board of supervisors electing to establish the registration fee. This bill would increase the maximum amount for that registration fee to $50. (4) Existing law limits the fees that a court, county, or city, as applicable, may charge for various costs related to the judgment and execution of criminal matters, including certain administrative costs, costs related to collecting restitution or to probation supervision, certain costs of conducting a criminal investigation, and costs related to providing specified court services, such as a petition for changing a plea or for an order sealing a record. Existing law also limits the fee that a local agency may charge for taking fingerprints for licensing, employment, or certification to an amount not to exceed $10. This bill would increase the maximum fee for administrative costs of collection from 10% to 15%, and for other fees would delete those limits on the maximum fees that may be charged for providing those services pursuant to those provisions, as specified. This bill would also establish a fee to process installment payments, which would not exceed the administrative and clerical costs, and shall not exceed $75, as provided. Additionally, the bill would increase the maximum fee for changing a plea or setting aside a verdict from $120 to $150. (5) Existing law authorizes a county to levy charges for the reasonable costs of support of a minor against the father, mother, spouse, or other person, while the minor is placed, or detained in, or committed to, any institution or other place, or pursuant to an order of the juvenile court. Existing law limits the costs of support to actual costs incurred by the county for food and food preparation, clothing, personal supplies, and medical expenses, not to exceed a maximum cost of $15 per day, except that the cost may be adjusted every 3rd year to reflect the percentage change in the calendar year annual average of the California Consumer Price Index, as specified. This bill would increase that amount to $30 per day. (6) Existing law authorizes the county board of supervisors or the court, as the case may be, to require reimbursement for the actual cost of services rendered for a petition to seal or expunge a criminal record of a minor, not to exceed $120. This bill would raise that limit to $150.
