To which agency must the annual report about a city's collection program be submitted?

• A. The Attorney General's Office
• B. The Office of Court Administration
• C. The Department of Public Safety
• D. The City Council

Answer: (B)

Reporting on a city's collection program is directed to the Office of Court Administration because this body oversees how court-related fines, costs, and other penalties are collected and reported. It provides the centralized oversight and standardized data necessary to track municipal collections across different cities, ensuring compliance with rules and proper financial reporting. The Attorney General's Office handles legal advisement and state-level enforcement rather than routine municipal collection reporting. The Department of Public Safety focuses on law enforcement and public safety matters, not reporting on court-ordered collections. The City Council may receive comprehensive reports, but the formal submission path for this type of program data is through the Office of Court Administration to maintain consistent oversight and records.
