SB 1189 Pennsylvania Senate · 2023-2024 Regular Session

An Act amending Title 42 (Judiciary and Judicial Procedure) of the Pennsylvania Consolidated Statutes, in budget and finance, further providing for expenses.

This bill updates the funding rules for magisterial district judges and Philadelphia municipal court judges in Pennsylvania. It requires the Office of the Court Administrator to pay a base annual registration fee of $600 to the judges' association, with an additional increase tied to the Consumer Price Index starting in 2025. The legislation also mandates that the Office cover the costs of publishing a monthly journal of state laws and court rules, while other expenses remain funded through existing annual appropriations.
