B. THE COUNTY TREASURER SHALL COLLECT, DISBURSE, AND ACCOUNT FOR
THE money [shall be collected, disbursed to said jurors and] LEVIED FOR state's
witnesses [and accounted for by] AS the County Treasurer [as] COLLECTS,
DISBURSES, AND ACCOUNTS FOR other levies [are collected, disbursed and accounted
for by him].
[B.] C. Any surplus that may remain in the hands of said Treasurer shall be
a contingent fund for paying [said] jurors.
COMMITTEE NOTE: Ch____, Acts of 2006, which enacted revised CJ Title 8,
also amended this section, to delete the former references to the levy for
jurors - now revised CJ § 8-427(b).
As the balance of this section does not relate to jurors, it was retained with
stylistic changes, although the reference to witnesses may be obsolete in
light of Ch. 192, Acts of 2005.
Article 16 - Montgomery County
12-3.
The council shall annually levy such sum of money as it may deem sufficient to
pay the expenses which may be incurred the then succeeding year by the attendance
of [jurors,] state's witnesses, criers and bailiffs of the circuit court.
COMMITTEE NOTE: Ch____, Acts of 2006, which enacted revised CJ Title 8,
also amended this section, to delete the reference to the levy for jurors -
now revised CJ § 8-427(b).
As the balance of this section does not relate to jurors, it was retained with
stylistic changes, although the reference to witnesses may be obsolete in
light of Ch. 192, Acts of 2005.
12-6.
(A) A certificate signed by the clerk of the circuit court, and expressing the
number of days [any jurors,] A state's witness, crier or bailiff may have attended, and
the sum due him for such attendance, shall be sufficient authority to the director of
finance to pay the amount specified therein.
(B) A CERTIFICATE THAT IS SIGNED BY THE JURY COMMISSIONER AND
STATES THE NUMBER OF DAYS THAT EACH PROSPECTIVE, QUALIFIED, OR SWORN
JUROR HAS BEEN REQUIRED TO BE IN ATTENDANCE AT OR IN PROXIMITY TO THE
COURT, AND THE SUM DUE, FOR JURY SERVICE SHALL BE SUFFICIENT AUTHORITY
FOR THE DIRECTOR OF FINANCE TO PAY THE AMOUNT STATED IN THE CERTIFICATE.
COMMITTEE NOTE: Ch____, Acts of 2006, amended this section to: (1)
renumber it as subsection (a) and delete the reference to "jurors"; and (2)
add subsection (b). The addition provides for a "jury commissioner",
instead of the "clerk of the circuit court", to issue a certificate and, for
consistency with revised CJ §§ 8-425 and 8-429, refers to "prospective,
qualified, or sworn" jurors and attendance at or "in proximity to" a court.
