The special assessment on convicted persons is part of the sentence of all offenders convicted of federal crimes in the United States.
[2][3] For any federal felony, the assessment is always $100 per count.
For example, a person convicted of 14 federal felonies would need to pay 14 $100 special assessments, for a total of $1,400.
The sentencing judge is not authorized to waive the special assessment, even for the indigent.
