The bill amends sections 151d and 321 of the Michigan Compiled Laws, which pertain to the juror compensation reimbursement fund and the fees associated with the court of appeals, respectively. It establishes the juror compensation reimbursement fund in the state treasury, detailing how funds will be credited from various fees, including driver license clearance fees and jury demand fees. The bill specifies that the unencumbered balance in the fund at the end of certain fiscal years will be transferred to the general fund or the court equity fund, with specific amounts designated for each year from 2005 to 2029.

Additionally, the bill outlines the fees to be paid to the clerk of the court of appeals for various legal proceedings, including appeals and motions. It sets specific amounts for these fees and provides for the possibility of fee waivers for individuals unable to pay. The collected fees are designated to support the operational expenses of the court of appeals, and the bill mandates that the clerk deposit all collected fees with the state treasurer monthly. The act is set to take immediate effect upon approval.
