Synopsis As Introduced
Amends the Code of Criminal Procedure of 1963. Provides that a defendant convicted in a criminal prosecution whose conviction is reversed on final appeal or by a finding of factual innocence in a collateral proceeding such as habeas corpus or post-conviction relief under Article 122 of this Code is not liable for any costs or fees of the court or circuit clerk's office, or for any charge of subsistence while detained in custody. Provides that if the defendant has paid any costs, fine, or fees, in the case, the clerk or judge shall give him or her a certificate of the payment of those costs, fine, or fees with the items of those expenses, which, when audited and approved according to law, shall be refunded to the defendant.

Senate Floor Amendment No. 1
Deletes provision that if the defendant's conviction is reversed on final appeal, the defendant is not liable for the costs or fees of the court or circuit clerk's office, or for any charge of subsistence while detained in custody. Limits applicability of the bill to cases in which the defendant's conviction is reversed by a finding of factual innocence in a collateral proceeding.
