What changed in the latest version
56 added · 35 removedPlain-language change summary
The amendment to HB 505 clarifies that the Judge of Probate in Calhoun County will receive a salary that matches the base salary of a district court judge, as well as any future salary increases tied to cost-of-living adjustments. It also specifies that to receive this new salary, the judge must waive any other compensation they might receive under a separate law. This change is important because it ensures that the judge's pay is standardized with district judges, promoting fairness and transparency in how judicial compensation is structured in the county.
