Which statement is true about the warrant fee remittance to the State upon conviction when statewide authority is involved?

• A. The State never receives any warrant fee.
• B. The arrest fee is always remitted to the State.
• C. The warrant fee is split between the State and the city.
• D. The court remits $10 of the warrant fee to the State upon conviction.

Answer: (D)

When statewide authority is involved, a portion of the warrant fee is directed to the State after a case is resolved. Specifically, the court remits ten dollars of the warrant fee to the State upon conviction. This means revenue from the warrant fee is collected by the court and then transferred to the State only when a conviction occurs, not in every circumstance and not always via the arrest fee or a split with the city. The fixed remittance of ten dollars reflects the established process in this context.
