Bill > SB2890

This bill repeals the Judicial System Operation Fund, which was a dedicated fund for judicial expenses, and redirects its funding to the State General Fund. It amends several sections of Mississippi law to remove references to the Judicial System Operation Fund and replace them with references to the State General Fund, impacting various fees and salary supplements related to the judicial system, including those for county court judges, Supreme Court clerks, chancery court clerks, circuit court clerks, and the issuance of special "judiciary" license plates. Additionally, it adjusts the distribution of filing fees for expunging offenses and modifies how judicial salaries are funded, ensuring that the State General Fund is the primary source for these costs. The bill also brings forward existing sections related to judicial funding and operations for potential future amendments.
