AN ACT FOR THE ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICE OF THE COURTS - COURT PERSONNEL APPROPRIATION FOR THE 2025-2026 FISCAL YEAR.

State Bill 71 is an appropriations act that allocates funds for the Administrative Office of the Courts for the 2025-2026 fiscal year. It directly affects court personnel by providing the necessary funding for their salaries and operations. An amendment to the bill specifically adjusts certain salary grades, changing "GS08" to "SGS08" and "GS09" to "SGS09" for some positions.
