Be it enacted by the Legislature of the State of Kansas:

      Section  1. K.S.A. 21-3836 is hereby amended to read as follows: 21-
3836. (a) Any pretrial release of any criminal defendant, whether on bail
or under another form of recognizance, shall be considered as a matter
of law to include a condition that the defendant will not commit, cause
to be committed or knowingly permit to be committed, on the defendant's
behalf, any violation of this act. Willful violation of that condition is sub-
ject to the sanction provided by subsection (c) of K.S.A. 21-3835, and
amendments thereto, whether or not the defendant was the subject of an
order under K.S.A. 21-3834, and amendments thereto.

      (b) Any receipt for any bail or bond given by any court, or by any
surety or bondsman and any written promise to appear on one's own
recognizance shall contain notice of the provisions of subsection (a) in a
conspicuous location.

      (c) Any pretrial release of any criminal defendant whether on bail or
under another form of recognizance who requests and is entitled to the
assistance of counsel under the provisions of K.S.A. 22-4503, and amend-
ments thereto, shall be considered as a matter of law to include a condition
that the defendant shall pay the application fee prescribed by K.S.A. 2002
Supp. 22-4529, and amendments thereto, and the failure to pay such fee
shall constitute a violation of this act. Willful violation of such condition
is subject to the sanction provided by subsection (c) of K.S.A. 21-3835,
and amendments thereto, whether or not the defendant was the subject
of an order under K.S.A. 21-3834, and amendments thereto.

the amount of $50 for the period commencing on the effective date of this
act and ending on June 30, 2004, and the amount of $100 on or after July
1, 2004, to the clerk of the district court. If it appears to the satisfaction
of the court that payment of the administrative application fee will impose
manifest hardship on the defendant, the court may waive payment of all
or part of the administrative application fee. All moneys received pur-
suant to this section shall be remitted to the state treasurer in accordance
with the provisions of K.S.A. 75-4215, and amendments thereto. Upon
receipt of each such remittance, the state treasurer shall deposit the entire
amount in the state treasury to the credit of the indigents' defense services
fund. If the defendant is acquitted or the case is dismissed, any admin-
istrative application fee paid pursuant to this section shall be remitted to
the defendant. The provisions of this section shall take effect on and after
July 1, 1997.
