A court may, in its discretion, treat any intentional failure to comply with a court order in respect to fines or costs, or both, upon conviction, as civil contempt. Upon judgment for fine and cost rendered on a conviction, execution may be issued against the property of a defendant and returned in the same manner as in civil actions. Whenever anyone is convicted of any offense in the city, in addition to the fine imposed, he or she must pay the costs of prosecution. Costs of prosecution shall include any and all of the following: cost of docket, cost of issuing a warrant, cost per mileage in processing the warrant, a fee for a personal recognizance bond, and costs for witness fees. (Ord. 74-98 § 45)
