Section 18-85a-4 - Payment and collection of assessed costs of incarceration, services and programs(a) Inmate responsibility for costs of elective education programs or vocational-education programs as provided in Section 18-85a-3 shall be deducted by the Department of Correction from the inmate's account prior to the inmate's admission to such programs or shall be deducted from the inmate's account following admission to such programs if necessary to permit admission. Necessity will exist only in cases where the inmate does not have adequate funds for admission at the time of entry to the program, but will earn such funds from participation in the program.(b) The inmate's responsibility to pay the assessed cost of incarceration shall be discharged in part by a 10% deduction from all deposits made to the inmate's individual account excluding deposits made from Job Training, Skill Development, Career Opportunity or Enhancement Programs. Deductions from an inmate's account shall not exceed the assessed cost of incarceration owed by the inmate. Any balance in the amount owed by an inmate on the assessed cost of incarceration after such deductions shall be collected with the assistance of the Department of Administrative Services and in accordance with a memorandum of understanding between the Department of Correction and the Department of Administrative Services.Conn.
