law that a state may or may not authorize appeals from judgments of convictions in criminal
cases and certain other related proceedings involving the life, liberty or property of a person

Section 12-14-71 Appeals from judgments of circuit courts and proceedings thereon. From the
judgment of the circuit court, the municipality, in a case holding invalid an ordinance, or

Section 12-19-150 Legislative intent; assessment of fees in criminal cases; submission of cost
bill by municipal or district court clerk and making of final assessment of costs in circuit
court upon appeals from municipal or district courts to circuit courts. (a) It is hereby declared
to be the policy of the state that docket fees and other court costs in criminal cases shall
generally be assessed only upon conviction. It is further declared to be the policy of the

costs by the defendant or by the complainant where the judge has determined that the criminal
process has been abused. (b) Docket fees and other court costs in criminal cases shall be
assessed upon conviction; provided that, in the interest of justice,...
