(a) All expenditures provided for in this act shall be paid as follows: (1) In each judicial district consisting of a single county such expenditure shall be paid by the board of county commissioners or chief judge from the court trustees operations fund as provided in K.S.A. 2017 Supp. 20-380, and amendments thereto. (2) In each judicial district consisting of more than one county which has a single court trustee operation serving all the counties in that district, such expenditure shall be paid by the: (A) Board of county commissioners of the county having the greatest amount of support or restitution money collected by the court trustee's office in such district from the court trustees operations fund of such county, and such board of county commissioners shall send a statement to the board of county commissioners of each of the other counties in such district for a proportional amount of such annual expenditures with such proportion to be based upon the respective amounts of support and restitution money collected by the court trustee's office of each county within such judicial district. Each board of county commissioners receiving a statement pursuant to this section shall make payment of the same from the court trustees operations fund of the county; or (B) chief judge of such judicial district. Such judge shall pay such annual expenditures from the court trustee operations fund in the district court of each county based upon the respective amounts of support and restitution money collected by the court trustee's office of each county within such judicial district. The chief judge shall promptly reimburse the county general fund for expenditures made for salary, compensation and fringe benefits made on behalf of the court trustee's office pursuant to K.S.A. 20-162, 20-358 and 20-359, and amendments thereto. (3) The expenditure for a court trustee office in a multicounty district which does not operate in all counties of the district shall be paid proportionately, as in subsection (2), from the court trustee operations fund of each county served by the court trustee. (b) The chief judge and the board of county commissioners may agree on a reimbursement amount to the county general fund in an amount less than the total expenses of the court trustee's office, but such reimbursement amount shall not exceed the total expenses of the court trustee's office. |
