The 416th and 417th Judicial District Courts would be created on September 1, 2003 and the 418th Judicial District Court would be created on September 1, 2004, all in Collin County. The bill would cost the state $258,710 in fiscal year 2004 and $388,065 in fiscal year 2005.
A new judicial district court costs the state $101,700 per year for the salary of a district judge and an additional $27,655 in the judge's benefits, for a total of $129,355 per judicial district per year. Other costs are paid by local government.
