         FROM:  John Keel, Director    
         
In response to your request for a Fiscal Note on HB455 ( Relating 
to objection to a visiting judge.) this office has detemined 
the following:
         
         Biennial Net Impact to General Revenue Funds by HB455-As Engrossed
         

No significant fiscal implication to the State is anticipated.
         

         
 
          
Harris and Travis County officials estimate that notice requirements 
and provisions of the bill that allow objections to the assignment 
of a visiting judge in criminal cases could result in increased 
costs to counties with populations greater than 500,000.
