The presiding judge should not permit anyone to control or influence the discretionary amount of any fine, penalty or sanction imposed. Under the direction of the presiding judge, the court shall collect all fines, sanctions, restitution and bond payments imposed by the court. Because all monies coming into the possession of the Town municipal court are public monies, these funds shall be handled and accounted for in accordance with state law and procedures adopted by the Town council.
