Idaho Supreme Court Finds Counties Need New Rules For Unpaid Court Fines

A courtroom at the Idaho Supreme Court.
A new ruling from the state’s highest court could reshape the way counties across Idaho deal with people who don’t, or aren’t able to, pay their court fines.
Last year, an Elmore County judge issued a warrant for Roxana Beck, saying she failed to pay about $650 in court fines related to a past misdemeanor conviction.
Beck was eventually arrested in Canyon County in October and held in jail for five days – two days longer than the maximum sentence. She eventually entered an Alford plea, meaning she maintained her innocence, but acknowledged prosecutors could likely prove their case.
