Explanation
(This amendment adjusts funding for the waivers for court-appointed counsel that were authorized in the 2007 General Assembly Session. The General Assembly appropriated $8.2 million a year for the waivers beginning in fiscal year 2008. In the first seven months of the program expenditures have been less than $400,000, though expenditures have increased in recent months. This amendment adjusts the appropriation to assume $4.2 million in fiscal year 2009 and $6.2 million in fiscal year 2010.)
