- Currently, all penalty amounts recovered for State fish and game law violations must be paid in full to the Division of Fish and Wildlife
- The 50/50 split would also apply to federal fish and game law violations adjudicated in small municipality courts, unless prohibited by federal law
- Court officials who fail to forward recovered moneys to the appropriate recipients within 30 days would be guilty of a fourth-degree crime
