Explanation

(This amendment provides $310,000 each year from the general fund to increase the funding for court-appointed mediators by increasing the fee per mediation from $100 to $120, and by clarifying that cases that involve custody, visitation, and child or spousal support matters are treated as separate mediations for purposes of calculating the fee.  This amendment is contingent upon final passage of Senate Bill 606.)
