In traffic cases where a fine is imposed that includes costs, courts may charge an additional $5 fee, known as the electronic citation fee, if the "governing authority of the court" has adopted a resolution imposing the fee. The fee must be placed in the Electronic Citation Fund. Each year, the court clerk must provide an annual report and accounting of the fund to the Georgia Superior Court Clerks Cooperative Authority and to each governing authority that approved the resolution imposing the electronic citation fee. The resolution sunsets at the end of each fiscal year and governing authority must adopt a resolution on an annual basis to impose the fee. The Sunset was changed from 5 years from 2019 to 2023.
