Bill Summary

An Act To Amend Section 9-5-49, Mississippi Code Of 1972, To Remove Language Regarding Local Contributions For The Maintenance Of The Sixteenth Chancery Court District; And For Related Purposes.

AI Summary

This bill amends Mississippi Code Section 9-5-49 to remove language that required local contributions from counties for the maintenance of the Sixteenth Chancery Court District, which is composed of George, Greene, and Jackson Counties. Previously, these contributions were to be paid proportionally based on each county's population, with the Jackson County Board of Supervisors determining the amounts. The bill effectively eliminates this financial responsibility for the counties within the district.
