2007 Assembly BILL 535

October 16, 2007 - Introduced by Representatives Molepske, Hraychuck, Hahn and Berceau, cosponsored by Senators Sullivan and Lassa. Referred to Committee on Corrections and Courts.

AB535,1,2 An Act to amend 814.68 (2) of the statutes; relating to: increasing supplementary examination fees for supplemental court commissioners.

Analysis by the Legislative Reference Bureau

Under current law, supplemental court commissioners receive a fee of $15 for attending a supplementary examination under ch. 816 at which a judgment debtor may be ordered to answer a judgment creditor's inquiries regarding the judgment debtor's property. This bill increases that fee to $50.

For further information see the state and local fiscal estimate, which will be printed as an appendix to this bill.

The people of the state of Wisconsin, represented in senate and assembly, do enact as follows:
