SUBJECT: PUBLIC HEARING
SPECIFIC REQUEST(S)OR RECOMMENDATION(S)&BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
RECOMMENDATION
Fix November 27,; 1990 at 11 : 00 a.m. for a public hearing on
proposed establishment of an administrative fee, as prescribed by
law, for Municipal Courts for the service of receiving and
remitting judgment debtor payments .
FINANCIAL IMPACT
It is anticipated that revenues will increase for the 1990-91
fiscal year.
REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATION / BACKGROUND
Assembly Bill, 2164 , Statutes of 1989 allows a judgment debtor to
pay the judgment of a small claims court to the court in which the
judgment was entered. The court would then be required to remit
the payment to the judgment creditor. The bill allows the Board of
Supervisors to set a fee, not to exceed the actual costs of
administering theiprogram, up to a maximum of $25, which is paid by
the judgment debtor.
The Municipal Courts has determined that the costs of administering
judgment debtor payments exceeds $25 (reference attachments) and,
therefore, request that the administrative fee be set at the
maximum amount.
CONSEQUENCES OF NEGATIVE ACTION
If the judgment debtor fee is not established, the Municipal Courts
will be required to carry out the program, but will be unable to
recover its costs ' for doing so.
