The "New Hampshire Public Defender Funding and Pooled Trust Accounts Reform Act" mandates that attorneys controlling interest-bearing pooled trust accounts must remit the interest or dividends from these accounts to the New Hampshire public defender's office on a quarterly basis. This requirement applies to lawyers who are not judges, government employees, or otherwise engaged in the private practice of law. The public defender's office can only receive these funds if it has not contributed to any non-profit organization or political campaign during the same quarter and must publish its budget within 90 days after the fiscal year ends.

If the public defender's office fails to meet these conditions, the funds will instead be directed to the general fund. Additionally, the New Hampshire Supreme Court and the bar association are authorized to create rules to govern this section, provided they do not conflict with the bill's provisions. The act will take effect 60 days after its passage.
