Summary

Existing law makes it a crime for any person, with sexual intent, to commit a lewd or lascivious act, as defined, with a child who is under 14 years of age. In addition to a term of imprisonment, existing law provides that upon the conviction of a violation of these provisions the court may order the defendant to pay an additional fine not to exceed $10,000 to be deposited in the Victim-Witness Assistance Fund. If the court imposes the fine, existing law allows that the actual administrative cost of collecting the fine may be paid into the county treasury, not to exceed 2% of the amount paid. This bill would increase the maximum percentage of the fine that may be paid into the county treasury to 3%.
