Court cost are skyrocketing and at least one court is trying to contain costs.
Chief Judge F. Keith Brown announced Tuesday that his employees will take five unpaid holidays for the remainder of this year to help get his budget to the 5.5 percent reduction mandated by the county board.
Adding to the budget debacle for 2010 will be a 35 percent reduction in state funding for court services, including the various forms of probation. That will result in the loss of about $914,000
on the horizon are the additional costs of treating 17-year-olds convicted of a misdemeanor as juveniles and housing then in the juvenile detention center
