1st Dist. Rule 23 Order (12/30/10)
This case presents question as to whether trial court properly imposed $200 DNA analysis system fee on defendant, where said fee was not subject to defendant's presentence incarceration credit. Appellate Court, in affirming trial court, found that said imposition was fee (as opposed to fine) that was not subject to presentence incarceration credit since said fee has purpose of seeking reimbursement for cost to State for obtaining DNA analysis for convicted defendants.
