Administration" is hereby amended to read as follows:
     8-15-9.3. Public inspection of court payments owed.
     (a) Notwithstanding any other provision of law, the director of the finance section on a
quarterly basis shall prepare a list of the one hundred (100) delinquent persons who owe the
largest amount of court-imposed or court-related fees, fines, court costs, assessments, charges,
and/or any other monetary obligations due and owing to the state which that have been unpaid
for a period in excess of ninety (90) days from the date that any such amounts were due and are
not the subject of a court-ordered payment plan in good standing. (The above fees are hereinafter
referred to as "Ooverdue Ccourt Ffees".) The list shall contain the name, city or town, and state of
each person who owes Ooverdue Ccourt Ffees as of the end of the quarter, together with the total
amount owed, and the date of disposition. No person owing Ooverdue Ccourt Ffees shall be
included on such list if the underlying matter in which Ooverdue Ccourt Ffees were imposed, or
the amount of the fees, is the subject of an appeal.

inspection and shall be published on the website that is maintained by the courts; provided,
however, that any such list prepared by the director shall not include any individual's social
security number or driver's license number.
