A magistrate court that has an adult drug court program may assess and collect from participants a "drug court fee" of fifty dollars ($50.00) a month. Program fee requirements may be satisfied by community service at the federal minimum wage. Proceeds from the drug court fee shall be deposited in the drug court fund of the judicial district established pursuant to Section 34-6-47 NMSA 1978. History: Laws 2003, ch. 240, § 3; 2021, ch. 95, § 3. The 2021 amendment, effective June 18, 2021, transferred duties of the administrative office of the courts to individual judicial districts; deleted subsection designation "A", and after "drug court fund", added "of the judicial district established pursuant to Section 34-6-47 NMSA 1978"; and deleted former Subsection B, which related to administering money in the drug court fund by the administrative office of the courts.
