Title 9 Part 6155

In accordance with the provisions of chapter 50 of the Laws of 1989 this Part will establish the policy for setting fees to be paid for publications and other services provided by the Division of Criminal Justice Services, Bureau of Prosecution Services. The actual fee structure will be subject to approval by the Director of the New York State Division of the Budget.

Fees for copies of Bureau of Prosecution Services' publications and videotapes shall be in amounts not to exceed the estimated cost of developing, printing and reproducing such materials, plus postage or shipping, where applicable. A list of current publications available and costs therefor will be furnished upon request. Contact the Bureau of Prosecution Services at the Division of Criminal Justice Services, Executive Park Tower, Stuyvesant Plaza, Albany, NY 12203, (518) 457-8413.

The fee to be charged for attending any seminar conducted or sponsored by the Bureau of Prosecution Services shall be in an amount not to exceed the projected per capita cost of conducting each seminar. Such fee shall also include the cost of all seminar-related printed material.

A graduated fee, based on the projected cost of preparing individual appellate briefs or for other related appellate representation services, will be quoted and assessed in advance of providing such services. The fee to be assessed for appellate representation services will be based on the complexity and number of legal issues raised and the length of the transcripts contained in the record on appeal.

Payment for publications, seminars, and other services provided by the Bureau of Prosecution Services shall be made by government check, government voucher, or attorney's check only, payable to the Division of Criminal Justice Services.

The Commissioner of the Division of Criminal Justice Services in the exercise of discretion may waive any fee or portion thereof upon the showing of good cause.
