Court security.
Summary
(1) Existing law establishes the Trial Court Trust Fund, the proceeds of which are apportioned for the purpose of funding trial court operations. This bill would establish a Court Security Account in the Trial Court Trust Fund, and require that all court security funds from whatever source be deposited into the account and expended only for court security services. (2) Existing law imposes a fee of $30 upon every conviction for a criminal offense, other than parking offenses, for funding of court security until July 1, 2011, and a court security fee of $20 thereafter. Existing law provides that proceeds of the court security fee be transferred monthly from the counties for deposit in the Trial Court Trust Fund to fund trial court operations, including those marshals and sheriffs as the court deems necessary for court operations. This bill would continue the increased court security fee until July 1, 2013. The bill would require proceeds of the court security fee to be deposited in the Court Security Account in the Trial Court Trust Fund. This bill would require the Judicial Council to provide for administration of these provisions.
