The bill would amend the Government Code to change the name of Felony Prosecutor Supplement Fund No. 303 (Other Funds) to the Assistant Prosecutor Supplement Fund No. 303 and to require the State to pay salary supplements to all assistant county attorneys. The bill would make a conforming amendment.
The bill would take effect September 1, 2007.
The bill would change the definition of assistant prosecutor to include all assistant county attorneys. Previously, the statute only required payment of longevity pay to assistant county attorneys of county attorneys paid to perform the duties of district attorney. The Judiciary Section, Comptroller’s Office estimates this statute change would require an increased appropriation from the fund to pay the supplement to an additional 300 assistant county attorneys.
