Summary

Summary

The Trial Court Budget Advisory Committee recommends the delegation of Trial Court Trust Fund authority to the Judicial Council Administrative Director to transfer funding allocations approved by the council from one program or project to another, subject to any restrictions or conditions provided by the Judicial Council, to address unanticipated needs and contingencies. This would allow for immediate implementation to meet critical needs of the trial courts and enable council staff to commit funding on a timely basis.
