Section 2021. Payment of fines, disposition thereof and related matters

1.  A fine imposed and paid before commitment, must be received by the
  court, and unless otherwise provided by law, shall be  the  property  of
  the town in which the offense was committed if the fine was imposed by a
  town  court. If, however, the fine was imposed by a village court for an
  offense committed in a village, then, unless otherwise provided by  law,
  the  fine  shall be the property of the village in which the offense was
  committed. All such fines shall be paid to the state comptroller by  the
  court  on  or  before  the  tenth day of the month next succeeding their
  collection.   Notwithstanding   the   foregoing   provisions   of   this
  subdivision, all fines imposed for the violation of a village local law,
  ordinance  or regulation, unless otherwise provided by law, shall be the
  property of such village, whether or not the village has established the
  office of village justice.
    2. If the defendant is committed in default of the payment of a  fine,
  he  may pay it, and any surcharge and/or crime victim assistance fee, to
  the sheriff or superintendent or municipal official of the  facility  to
  whom the defendant was committed who shall, within thirty days after the
  receipt  thereof,  unless otherwise provided by law, pay the same to the
  justice of the court that rendered the conviction.
