Statutory Penalties Fines in Alaska

Alaska law sets statutory penalty fines for criminal offenses under Alaska Stat. § 12.55.035. This statute establishes the maximum and minimum fine amounts that a court may impose upon conviction, depending on the classification of the offense. The law also provides for additional mandatory penalties, such as surcharges and assessments, which are added to the base fine. The statute specifies the precise dollar ranges for each offense class, from infractions to felonies, and outlines when a court may deviate from those ranges. It further sets out factors the court must consider in determining the appropriate fine. A worked example showing how the base fine and surcharges combine is provided below.
