Criminal investigators; add to the 22nd Circuit Court District.

HB 7 adds two full-time criminal investigators to the 22nd Circuit Court District in Mississippi, increasing its total to three investigators. This change directly affects the district attorney of the 22nd Circuit Court District, granting them authority to appoint these additional staff members. The bill amends Mississippi Code Section 25-31-10 to specify this staffing adjustment, without altering salary limits or other existing provisions. The change takes effect July 1, 2026, though the bill died in committee before passing.
