Civil Legal Assistance Fund; impose state assessment for certain criminal offenses to fund.

Summary

HB 384 proposes adding an extra assessment on certain criminal offenses—traffic tickets, implied‑consent law violations, and game‑fish infractions—with $1 of each traffic and implied‑consent assessment directed to the Civil Legal Assistance Fund and the remainder to the state General Fund. It also adds a $10 fee for speeding 10‑20 mph over the limit and a $89 assessment on game‑fish violations that goes entirely to the General Fund. The bill seeks new revenue for civil legal aid but died in committee.
