§ 2.56.090. Effect of appeals on payment—Circuit court to collect costs when.


Latest version.
  • A.

    Upon an appeal being taken from any judgment of the metropolitan court wherein the defendant was convicted of violating a metropolitan ordinance, regulation or private act, the appeal shall not act as stay or supersedeas as of the cost imposed by this article, unless the defendant executes an appeal bond, with solvent surety, conditioned to pay the metropolitan court costs if, upon appeal, he is found guilty.

    B.

    If, upon appeal to the circuit court as provided in Section 14.05 of the Charter, the defendant is found guilty of violating a metropolitan ordinance, the circuit court clerk shall collect such costs as are imposed by this article, and such costs shall be in addition to and not in lieu of any other costs imposed by law. Such costs collected by the circuit court clerk shall be remitted to the metropolitan government in the same method that fines collected by the circuit court clerk on appeal are now remitted to the metropolitan government.
