The task force will function from the date of its appointment until December 1, 2022, and will report its findings and recommendations to the governor, legislative committees, and other appropriate interim committees by that date. The bill also appropriates $100,000 from the general fund to the Administrative Office of the Courts for the task force's work in fiscal year 2022.
