Clerk funding bills moves closer to floor action
Sen. Travis Hutson
Legislation aimed at granting Florida’s court clerks access to an additional $31.2 million that would otherwise flow to the state’s general revenue fund breezed through committee stops in both chambers this week.
The Senate Appropriations Committee on Criminal and Civil Justice took up SB 1130 April 18. Bill sponsor Sen. Travis Hutson, a Palm Coast Republican, added a conforming amendment that aligned his measure with the House companion bill.
