                                   JUDGMENT
                         COSTS/ASSESSMENTS/COLLECTION


The Court may require partial or full reimbursement for the cost of court
appointed counsel, interpreters, booking fees, warrant fees, jury fees,
conviction fees, and all other costs and assessments allowed by law.

The Court may use the services of a collection agency for the purposes of
collecting unpaid and delinquent criminal fines, costs, assessments and
forfeitures.  The terms and conditions of the contract for collection services
shall be between the Federal Way Municipal Court, the City, and said collection
agency, and may be amended as necessary.

The collection agency's fee or charge, as set forth in said contract, shall be
added by the collection agency as a Court cost to the total judgment of the
Court against each Defendant whose account is referred by the Court to the
collection agency.

Nothing in this section shall prevent the Court from notifying the Department
of Licensing of the defendant's failure to pay a fine and/or costs as ordered
by the Court.
