With the recommendation that the substitute (S-1) be adopted and that the bill then pass.
Substitute offered
The Senate version of the Fiscal Year (FY) 2003-2004 Judiciary budget. (Note: Gov. Jennifer Granholm’s proposed budget for this department is <a href="http://www.michiganvotes.org/2003-SB-311">Senate Bill 311 </a>.) This appropriates $247.9 million in adjusted gross spending (funded from all sources, including state restricted fund and federal pass-through dollars, minus interdepartmental transfers), compared to $242.4 million, which was the FY 2002-2003 amount enrolled in 2002, excluding any supplemental appropriations, line-item vetoes, or later cuts. Of this, $161.3 million will come from the General Fund (funded by actual state tax revenues), compared to the FY 2002-2003 amount enrolled in 2002 of $176.9 million.
