The court partially exempted the defendant from paying court costs while ordering the state to cover the remainder of the expenses. The defendant, suffering from significant mental health limitations, argued that the costs were disproportionate to his financial situation and health status. The court balanced the principle of full cost recovery against the defendant's inability to pay, granting a partial exemption based on his specific circumstances.
