Potential current biennium revenue increase - General Fund
Correctional and Judicial Impact Statements
	There may be a minor reduction of workload associated with the minimal number of cases that will no longer be filed in the court system. A reduction in fine revenue associated with exempting kickboxing and Muay Thai from the crime of unlawful prize fighting will decrease General Fund and other dedicated revenue by minor amounts.
Fiscal Detail and Notes
	Adding kickboxing and Muay Thai to the regulatory oversight responsibilities of the Combat Sports Authority of Maine may increase the amount of revenue collected for competitions and events staged by the authority. By statute, any funds in excess of operating expenses must be transferred from the authority's reserve fund to the General Fund at the end of each fiscal year. The amount can not be determined at this time.
	Any additional costs to the Department of the Attorney General can be absorbed utilizing existing budgeted resources.
