3 additional fee, less 2 1/2% that shall be used to defray
4 administrative costs incurred by the clerk, shall be remitted
5 by the clerk to the Treasurer within 60 days after receipt
6 for deposit into the Trauma Center Fund. This additional fee
7 of $25 shall not be considered a part of the fine for
8 purposes of any reduction in the fine for time served either
9 before or after sentencing. Not later than March 1 of each
10 year the Circuit Clerk shall submit a report of the amount of
11 funds remitted to the State Treasurer under this subsection
12 (c-5) during the preceding calendar year.
13 The Circuit Clerk may accept payment of fines and costs

18 Courts Act.
19 (d) In determining the amount and method of payment of a
20 fine, except for those fines established for violations of
21 Chapter 15 of the Illinois Vehicle Code, the court shall
22 consider:
23 (1) the financial resources and future ability of
24 the offender to pay the fine; and
25 (2) whether the fine will prevent the offender from
26 making court ordered restitution or reparation to the
27 victim of the offense; and
28 (3) in a case where the accused is a dissolved
29 corporation and the court has appointed counsel to
30 represent the corporation, the costs incurred either by
31 the county or the State for such representation.
32 (e) The court may order the fine to be paid forthwith or
