Provides for the family court commissioner of the 7th Judicial Circuit to be compensated by the state without reimbursement
Second Read and Referred S Judiciary and Civil and Criminal Jurisprudence Committee
Summary
SB 1717 rewrites the law governing family court commissioners, letting each circuit appoint up to three extra commissioners if the state reimburses their salaries or other funds are used. It also extends an existing exception so the 7th Judicial Circuit can hire a commissioner whose pay comes directly from the state, without reimbursement, subject to a cap on the number of such commissioners. The bill repeals the old Section 487.020 and replaces it with the new language.
