N.D. Cent. Code § 29-32.1-13

Current through the 2023 Legislative Sessions

Section 29-32.1-13 - Reimbursement of costs and litigation expenses

If an application is denied, the state may move for an order requiring the applicant to reimburse the state for costs and for litigation expenses paid for the applicant from public funds. The court may grant the motion if it finds that the applicant's claim is so completely lacking in factual support or legal basis as to be frivolous or that the applicant has deliberately misused process. The court may require reimbursement of costs and expenses only to the extent reasonable in light of the applicant's present and probable future financial resources.
