(c)    The judges of the People's Court of Prince George's County,
shall arrange their dockets in such manner that a separate day or
days, or part of a day of each week, in each court of the circuit,
shall be devoted exclusively to the hearing of civil cases, criminal
cases and traffic cases arising under Article 66½ of the Annotated
Code of Maryland (1957 Edition, as amended from time to time),
respectively, as the volume and kind of cases may from time to time
require.

(d)    The Sheriff of Prince George's County is hereby authorized,
directed and required to serve all civil process issued by said judges.
The Sheriff shall be reimbursed by the County Commissioners for
his expenses incurred in serving process.

(e)    At the expiration of the term of office of the present clerks
of the trial magistrates courts for Prince George's County, and
every four years thereafter, there shall be appointed by each judge
a chief clerk. Such clerks shall keep all dockets of and supervise and
manage the office of said court. Notwithstanding any other
provision of law, the dockets and records of arrest and convictions
in traffic violations, and all other traffic records, shall be kept by the
clerks in such form and under such plan as may jointly be agreed

Motor Vehicles. Each clerk shall make proper report at periodic
intervals of all traffic convictions to the Department of Motor
Vehicles in accordance with such agreed plan, and, together
therewith, shall make remittance of all revenues due the State of
Maryland from traffic violation fines and costs to the Department of
Motor Vehicles. The [county treasurer] internal auditor of Prince
George's County shall regularly audit the accounts and records of said
clerks and shall furnish the Department of Motor Vehicles and the
State Comptroller regularly a certificate attesting to the fact that an
audit verification of traffic violation fines and costs imposed in the
People's Court has been made, and that all fines and costs due the
State of Maryland have been remitted to the Department of Motor
Vehicles. Each clerk shall have custody of all monies paid into the
court for any purpose and shall deposit such monies promptly in an
account in his name in Prince George's County; each clerk shall
prepare, sign and deliver with appropriate remittances to county and
State officials such reports of fines, forfeitures and costs as are
required of trial magistrates by law; each clerk shall report the
funds in his custody regardless of which judge or judges may from
time to time preside in the court; the clerks shall perform such other
duties as shall be properly assigned to them by the judges of the
People's Court, and they shall receive such salary as shall be fixed by
the County Commissioners of said county in equal monthly install-
ments; the said clerks before entering upon their duties shall each
give bond to the State of Maryland in the penalty of $25,000.00 with
corporate sureties satisfactory to said County Commissioners, the
premium of said bonds to be paid to the County Commissioners of
Prince George's County. The County Commissioners of Prince
George's County shall provide such additional clerical help as may be
necessary to carry out the administrative work of said courts at
salaries to be fixed by said County Commissioners.
