HB 204 McGaugh, Peggy
HB 204 -- JUDICIAL FINANCE COMMISSION
SPONSOR: McGaugh
This bill requires the Attorney General to provide representation to the circuit courts in proceedings before the Judicial Finance Commission unless hiring of private counsel is approved by the court. Additionally, the bill provides that any legal fees incurred by the circuit court in such proceedings shall be paid from the State Legal Expense Fund and not from any funds of the county involved in the proceeding.
This bill is the same as HCS HB 2703 (2022) and similar to SB 1110 (2022).
