Court of Appeals of Washington October 26, 2009, No. 62764-3-I (State v. Brewster)

Ellington, J.

Because the saving statute, chapter 10.01 RCW, applies only to criminal and punitive enactments and the DNA fee is not punitive, the saving clause does not apply, and the provision in effect at the time of sentencing controls.
