MI SB1471

Amends MCL 712A.29 to change the allocation priority of money collected from juveniles for fines, costs, restitution, assessments, and other payments arising from disposition orders.

Changes victim payment allocation from 50% to 100% of collected money, requiring all collected funds first go toward victim restitution payments before any other fines, costs, or assessments.

Establishes a cascading payment system where once victim payments are satisfied, remaining money applies to fines, costs, and assessments; if those remain unpaid after victims are paid, additional collections go to those obligations.

Specifies different payment priority orders for offenses that would violate state law versus local ordinances, with state law violations prioritizing minimum state costs first, followed by other costs, fines, then assessments.

Directs allocation of collected funds to county treasurers and political subdivisions for deposit in general funds or library purposes depending on offense type; takes effect only if Senate Bills 1469 and 1470 are also enacted.
