AB 2116 California Assembly · 2009-2010 Regular Session

Judges: gifts and honoraria.

Summary
Existing law limits the monetary value of gifts that may be accepted by judges and prohibits judges from accepting any honorarium. The Commission on Judicial Performance is required to enforce these prohibitions. This bill would make those provisions applicable to subordinate judicial officers. The bill would require the court employing the subordinate judicial officer to exercise initial jurisdiction, and the Commission on Judicial Performance to exercise discretionary jurisdiction, to enforce those prohibitions.
