Sec. 7. (a) This section applies when a county auditor has established a pretrial diversion program fund to receive funds initially deposited in the county fund from the collection of the pretrial diversion program fee. Whenever a prosecuting attorney:

(1) certifies to the county fiscal body that the amount in the pretrial diversion program fund exceeds the amount needed to finance the pretrial diversion program services during the calendar year; and

(2) states the amount of the excess funds in the certification;

the fiscal body may adopt an ordinance to appropriate the excess funds from the pretrial diversion program fund to the office of the prosecuting attorney.

(b) Funds appropriated as described in subsection (a) may be used by the office of the prosecuting attorney for any purpose specified in the appropriation ordinance adopted by the fiscal body.

(c) A county fiscal body may not transfer funds previously appropriated to the office of the prosecuting attorney as a result of an appropriation described in subsection (a).
