Analysis by the Legislative Reference Bureau
Under current law, any time a person is convicted for a crime and a sentence
is imposed or the person is placed on probation, the court must order the person to
submit a DNA sample and the person is charged $250 for each felony conviction and
$200 for each misdemeanor conviction. Under this bill, a person is required to submit
a sample and is charged the corresponding fee only the first time a person is
sentenced or placed on probation for a misdemeanor or for a felony.
For further information see the state and local fiscal estimate, which will be
printed as an appendix to this bill.
