Does P.C. 1245 permit the court in a felony case to, at the request of a CA, add a fine for a same-county misdemeanor to the fine assessed for the felony? Hypo: felony plea bargin for a fine of $1000 increaed to $1200 in consideration of an unadjudicated Class C misdemeanor in return for closing the misdeameanor.

Andrea JacobsAs the fine is part of the sentence, I would think, yes, that is permissible.
But, the total fine amount would need to be within the limitations for the offense to which he is being sentenced.
