FISCAL NOTE, 88TH LEGISLATIVE REGULAR SESSION
 
April 2, 2023

TO:
Honorable Jeff Leach, Chair, House Committee on Judiciary & Civil Jurisprudence
 
FROM:
Jerry McGinty, Director, Legislative Budget Board
 
IN RE:
HB3544 by Moody (Relating to payment of certain court costs associated with interpreters.), As Introduced

No significant fiscal implication to the State is anticipated.

It is assumed that any costs associated with the bill could be absorbed using existing resources.

Local Government Impact

The fiscal implication to units of local governments cannot be determined. The Office of Court Administration does not track the appointment of court interpreters and most costs associated with interpreters are carried by local entities.
