a sentence of | 4 |
| probation without entry of judgment under Section 10 of the
| 5 |
| Cannabis Control Act or Section 410 of the Controlled | 6 |
| Substances Act.
| 7 |
| Such additional amounts shall be assessed by the court | 8 |
| imposing
the fine and shall be collected by the Circuit Clerk | 9 |
| in addition to the
fine and costs in the case. Each such | 10 |
| additional penalty shall be
remitted by the Circuit Clerk | 11 |
| within one month after receipt to the State
Treasurer. The | 12 |
| State Treasurer shall deposit $1 for each $40, or fraction
| 13 |
| thereof, of fine imposed into the LEADS Maintenance Fund. The | 14 |
| remaining
surcharge amount shall be deposited into the Traffic | 15 |

| circuit clerk under Section 27.5 of the Clerks of
Courts Act. | 18 |
| Such additional penalty shall not be considered a part of the | 19 |
| fine
for purposes of any reduction in the fine for time served | 20 |
| either before or
after sentencing.
Not later than March 1 of | 21 |
| each year the Circuit Clerk
shall submit a report of the amount | 22 |
| of funds remitted to the State

Except as otherwise | 24 |
| provided by Supreme Court Rules, if a court in imposing
a fine | 25 |
| against an offender levies a gross
amount for fine, costs, fees | 26 |
| and penalties, the amount of the additional
penalty provided | 27 |
| for herein shall be computed on the amount remaining after
| 28 |
| deducting from the gross amount levied all fees of the Circuit | 29 |
| Clerk, the
State's Attorney and the Sheriff. After deducting | 30 |
| from the gross amount
levied the fees and additional penalty | 31 |
| provided for herein, less any other
additional penalties | 32 |
| provided by law, the clerk shall remit the net balance
| 33 |
| remaining to the entity authorized by law to receive the fine | 34 |
| imposed in
the case. For purposes of this Section "fees of the | 35 |
| Circuit Clerk" shall
include, if applicable, the fee provided | 36 |
