(Springfield, IL) — A new report finds court fees and fines in Illinois are out of control. The state legislature created the Statutory Court Fee Task Force, which released its findings last month. The task force report says huge increases in fees in criminal and traffic court proceedings are often resulting in excessive financial impacts for the offenders. It adds that from county to county, the fees and costs for the same infractions vary widely.
