Summary
Community service work in lieu of payment of fines and costs; work performed while incarcerated. Provides that in the program established by a court to provide an option to any person upon whom a fine and costs have been imposed to discharge all or part of the fine or costs by earning credits for the performance of community service work, work performed while incarcerated, defined in the bill as work performed for a wage that is less than the Virginia minimum wage, is added as an option for earning such credits during imprisonment at a state, local, or regional correctional facility. The bill makes offering such option for community service work or work performed while incarcerated mandatory. The bill provides that a person who is performing work performed while incarcerated shall be credited at the same rate as the community service work rate less any wages received for such work performed while incarcerated. Under current law, a court is required to establish a program for providing an option for community service work in lieu of payment of fines and costs but offering such option is not mandatory.
