Introduced
by
The executive recommendation for the FY 2002-2003 Judiciary budget. This appropriates $243.7 million in adjusted gross spending (funded from all sources, including state restricted fund and federal pass-through dollars, minus interdepartmental transfers), compared to $243.2 million, which was the FY 2001-2002 amount enacted in 2001, excluding any supplemental appropriations. Of this, $178.8 million will come from the General Fund (funded by actual state tax revenues), compared to the current year’s $179.8 million.
Referred to the Committee on Appropriations
Substitute offered
To replace the executive recommendation for the budget with a version which makes minor changes in the funding amounts, and minor changes in certain “boilerplate” language requiring or prohibiting various conditions and actions. The substitute adds $620,000 in additional general fund spending for security at the new Hall of Justice, and $227,100 to buy office equipment for the State Appellate Defender Office. It adds another $250,000 in general fund money for a program to pay certain legal aid lawyers up to half of their law school tuition debt.
