The Oklahoma City University Law School’s 2nd Annual Criminal Justice Reform Seminar was held on January 22, 2021. The seminar focused on how exorbitant fines and costs assessments, particularly in the sentencing of misdemeanor defendants, keeps individuals trapped in the criminal justice system and creates a downward spiral of collateral consequences. Focus was also made on the reform needed to change the impact of assessing fines and costs in sentencing, particularly misdemeanor sentencings.
