House Amendment

HCS/SB 871 - This act authorizes an additional associate circuit judge in the Eleventh Judicial Circuit, who shall be elected in 2020.

The act provides that Cole County shall have two associate circuit judges, with the second associate judge also being elected in 2020.

The act repeals a provision authorizing a new circuit judicial position in the Sixth Judicial Circuit when a new jail is constructed.

Currently for the preparation of all appellate transcripts of testimony or for proceedings in any circuit court, the court report shall receive three dollars and fifty cents per page. This act repeals the specification that the court reporter is to receive three dollars and fifty cents per page in circuit court proceedings. Also, the act repeals the provision specifying that the court reporter is to be reimbursed three dollars and fifty cents per legal page for the preparation of such transcripts.

This act is identical to HB 1487 (2018) and SCS/SB 169 (2017) and to provisions contained in HCS/HB 380 (2017), HCS/HB 597 (2017), SCS/HCB 1 (2017), and the truly agreed to and perfected version of SB 218 (2017).
