2003 House Bill 4078 ↩

Senate Roll Call 75: Passed

To revise the requirements on where a district court of the first class may sit so as to update various 1960s-era population formulas. At that time the office of justice of the peace was eliminated, and to compensate laws were passed requiring courts to sit in certain rural areas according to population formulas which are now obsolete, or which do not make sense given the relative ease of modern transportation between cities.
