O.C.G.A. § 15-21-3

The moneys arising from fines and bond forfeitures paid into the county treasury shall be kept separate and distinct from the county funds arising from other sources, and distinct and separate accounts of such funds shall also be kept by the county treasurer on the basis of the court from which the funds are received. (Ga. L. 1876, p. 108, § 2; Code 1882, § 4655c; Penal Code 1895, § 1091; Penal Code 1910, § 1118; Code 1933, § 27-2904; Ga. L. 2015, p. 693, § 3-32/HB 233.)
