Brooks County transfers $3,500 to court-appointed criminal attorney line
Summary
The Commissioners approved a $3,500 transfer into the court-appointed criminal attorney line by moving funds from four budget lines; action was moved by Commissioner Eduardo Garza and passed unanimously.
The court authorized moving a total of $3,500 into line 012-5-0435-5484 (Court Appointed Attorney - Criminal). The transfer was composed of $1,000 from 012-5-0435-5486 (Polygraph and other Fees), $1,000 from 012-5-0435-5548 (Court Reporter Travel), $1,000 from 012-5-0435-9070 (Miscellaneous), and $500 from 012-5-0435-5000 (Office Supplies). Commissioner Eduardo "Eddie" Garza moved the transfer; Commissioner Nora Salinas seconded. The motion carried by unanimous roll-call vote.
The minutes record the specific line numbers and amounts moved but do not provide explanatory detail about the need for the transfer (for example, cases or anticipated expenditures prompting the transfer). The action appears to be an internal reallocation to cover court-appointed attorney costs in criminal cases.
