Terms Used In Alabama Code 45-49-235.04
- Jurisdiction: (1) The legal authority of a court to hear and decide a case. Concurrent jurisdiction exists when two courts have simultaneous responsibility for the same case. (2) The geographic area over which the court has authority to decide cases.
In any case in which the court having jurisdiction of the case determines that the collection and payment of monies provided for in Section 45-49-235.03 will impose a definite and significant financial hardship on the dependents of the prisoner involved, the court, in its discretion, may waive the collection and payment of the monies. Provided, however, in making such determination, the court shall consider that the intent of this part is to not only promote the rehabilitation of offenders, but, insofar as possible, to make the implementation of this part self-supporting.
