Costs of Incarceration Fee Rule Established by US Department of Justice

The US Department of Justice has implemented a new rule to cover the costs of incarceration for federal inmates, assessing a fee equivalent to the average cost of one year of incarceration based on an inmate's ability to pay. The fee will not be collected from inmates with outstanding fines waived by a US District Court, and may be waived or reduced in cases of financial hardship.
