Indigent for Costs (IFC)


When a criminal defendant retains private counsel, yet is determined indigent by the Court for purposes of costs associated with the defense, JAC reviews and audits bills sent by due process vendors, such as court reporters, investigators, and expert witnesses, for payment.

Below please find JAC’s IFC Policies and Procedures, a guide, and frequently asked questions regarding this process, as well as necessary forms, sample motions and orders.
