En lenguaje claro
This bill amends the 1977 law that created the State Court of Gwinnett County. It adds a new provision requiring Gwinnett County's governing authority (the Board of Commissioners) to pay the chief judge of that court an extra $10,000 per year, on top of whatever salary and other supplements the judge already receives. The money would come from county funds and be paid out in 12 equal monthly installments. The bill states this new supplement is in addition to, not a replacement for, any existing compensation or supplements for the judge. The change would take effect June 1, 2025, and the bill repeals any conflicting laws.
