Analysis by the Legislative Reference Bureau
Under current law, the fee paid to a witness to attend a circuit court is $16 per
day of attendance. This bill allows the county board to establish a higher fee. The
amount established for witness fees is also the fee paid to witnesses in hearing before
office of credit unions and before the savings bank review board.
For further information see the state and local fiscal estimate, which will be
printed as an appendix to this bill.
