Summary
Summary
The Fiscal Planning Subcommittee of the Trial Court Budget Advisory Committee recommends approval of requests from trial courts for the fiscal year (FY) 2024-25 annual submission cycle for the Trial Court Trust Fund Funds Held on Behalf of the Trial Courts program. Under the Judicial Council’s approved process, a court may request that reduced allocations related to the fund balance cap be retained in the Trial Court Trust Fund for the benefit of that court. Twenty-five courts submitted 57 requests--38 new and 19 amended--for a total of $44 million in the FY 2024-25 submission cycle. The requests will allow the courts to meet contractual obligations and fund necessary court projects or purchases.
