Payment Voucher Submissions

Use this link to submit a voucher on any case where you were appointed by the IDSO.

Please note that the voucher submission website is taken offline by IT on the 4th Friday of every month from 9:00pm - 6:00am for maintenance.

In most cases, attorneys are encouraged to not file a voucher until final disposition of the case (i.e., sentence, dismissal, bench warrant, attorney withdrawal, attorney retained out). All vouchers must be submitted within 30 days of that date. The IDSO understands that exigent circumstances can arise, however, there is no guarantee of payment on late vouchers.

At the end of the fiscal year, this timeframe is shortened. All vouchers for cases completed in September of 2025 must be received no later than Friday, October 10, 2025. (i.e. if you complete a case on Tuesday, September 30th, you have 10 days to submit your voucher).

In cases that are significantly complex, which in the attorney’s professional judgment may span an inordinate length of time, attorneys may submit quarterly vouchers. Attorneys should be diligent about ensuring that in these circumstances, they are only vouchering for work done during the applicable quarter.

Fee Schedules

The IDSO uses the following fee schedules to pay attorneys:

Felony Fee Schedule

Misdemeanor Fee Schedule

Historical Felony Fee Schedules:

Time Itemizations

All voucher submissions must contain a time itemization. The IDSO has created template forms for attorneys. For felony cases, the IDSO recommends using the Excel template. The PDF template is designed for simple cases with only a few itemized events. There are free programs such as LibreOffice and Google Sheets that will allow you to complete the Excel template without purchasing a Microsoft product or subscription.
