Summary

HB458 ends Blount County’s salary supplement for the Forty-first Judicial Circuit’s official court reporter when that person retires or leaves, and repeals prior compensation laws.

What This Bill Does

Section 1 says any county salary supplement paid to the Blount County official court reporter serving the Forty-first Judicial Circuit (formerly the Thirtieth) expires immediately upon retirement or separation. Section 2 repeals Acts 1971-909 and 2000-440, which previously provided for the compensation of the official court reporter. Section 3 makes the act effective immediately after the governor signs it.

Who It Affects
  • The official court reporter for Blount County’s Forty-first Judicial Circuit; their county salary supplement would expire when they retire or separate from the circuit.
  • Blount County government, which would no longer pay the statutory salary supplement and would lose the authority established by the repealed acts.
Key Provisions
  • Section 1: County salary supplement for the Blount County court reporter expires immediately upon retirement or separation from the Forty-first Judicial Circuit.
  • Section 2: Repeals Acts 1971-909 and 2000-440 that provided for the compensation of the official court reporter.
  • Section 3: Effective date is immediate upon passage and governor approval.
