Sec. 8. An order for costs assessed under section 6 of this chapter is a civil judgment subject to the exemptions allowed debtors under IC 34-55-10-2. At any time after entry of the order, the defendant may petition the court that has entered the order for relief from payment. The court may release the defendant from payment of all or a part of the payment required by the order if the court finds that payment would impose a hardship upon the defendant or dependents of the defendant.
