Issue: The visiting Judge line item is depleted due to the change in the Texas Supreme Court Emergency Order that orders all visiting judges must preside from the bench of the county. Mileage, Meals and lodging have added to the expense. Interpreter/Reporter line item is in need of additional funds to close out the fiscal year and the pending criminal misdemeanor trials to be held before October.

Solution: Approve line item transfers.

Result: The court will have the monies allocated in the line items to comply with payment deadlines.
