1-16 COMMITTEE SUBSTITUTE FOR H.B. No. 1444 By: Henderson
1-17 A BILL TO BE ENTITLED
1-18 AN ACT
1-19 relating to the daily compensation of a retired judge serving as an
1-20 assigned probate judge.
1-21 BE IT ENACTED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF THE STATE OF TEXAS:
1-22 SECTION 1. Section 25.0022(p), Government Code, is amended
1-23 to read as follows:
1-24 (p) The daily compensation of a retired judge for purposes
1-25 of this section is set at an amount equal to the daily compensation
1-26 <1/365th of the annual salary> of a judge of a statutory probate
1-27 court in the county in which the retired <assigned> judge is
1-28 assigned <served immediately preceding retirement>.
1-29 SECTION 2. This Act takes effect September 1, 1993, and
1-30 applies only to the assignment of a judge under this section, made
1-31 on or after that date. An assignment made before the effective
1-32 date of this Act is governed by the law in effect at the time the
1-33 assignment is made, and that law is continued in effect for that
1-34 purpose.
1-35 SECTION 3. The importance of this legislation and the
1-36 crowded condition of the calendars in both houses create an
1-37 emergency and an imperative public necessity that the
1-38 constitutional rule requiring bills to be read on three several
1-39 days in each house be suspended, and this rule is hereby suspended.
