SCS/HB 142 - COUNTY AUDITOR This act requires the auditor of any county with a charter form of government to annually take an inventory of county property with an original value of $1,000 or more. Current law requires an inventory of county property with an original value of $250 or more. JACKSON COUNTY JUDICIAL CIRCUIT This act allows Jackson County's judicial circuit to impose and collect any fee, cost, or surcharge authorized under chapter 488 for any other judicial circuit in any civil, criminal, or domestic action provided that the cost, fee, or surcharge is authorized by the county's voters at an election. Such funds may be used for the needs of the judicial circuit. TRANSFER OF GUARDIANSHIP AND CONSERVATORSHIP CASES Under this act, a public administrator may request the court to transfer any guardianship or conservatorship case to another county. If the other county meets the venue requirements and the public administrator of the other county consents to the transfer, the court is required to transfer the case. The court with jurisdiction over the other county is required to appoint the public administrator of that county as the person's new guardian or conservator. The public administrator is required to file a final settlement of their conservatorship within thirty days of the court transferring the case. This final settlement will be filed in the court with jurisdiction over the original conservatorship and forwarded to the receiving county upon approval. Provisions of this act are similar to SB 145 (2011), SB 57 (2011) and HB 88 (2011). MEGHAN LUECKE
