The bill amends the existing "Court Clerks Incentive Pay" law to extend the incentive pay program to all full-time clerks of the supreme, superior, family, district courts, and the traffic tribunal, provided they meet the eligibility requirements outlined in the bill. The previous stipulation that only clerks in position as of July 5, 1994, were eligible has been removed, allowing for broader participation. The eligibility criteria have been updated to reflect current educational requirements, ensuring that clerks can qualify based on their educational achievements without the previous cutoff date.

Additionally, the bill repeals Section 8-4.1-6, which provided additional compensation for clerks who earned a master's degree in public administration. This change simplifies the incentive structure by eliminating the specific additional credit for that degree. The act is set to take effect immediately upon passage, allowing for the new provisions to be implemented without delay.
