1) The total amount requested for transfer from the Office
Automation Reserve Account is $237 for one-time costs to

computer.

the County Center and will reduce overtime from two hours per
case to five minutes.

Committee on October 27, 1992, and is recommended by the Friend
of the Court in an effort to control overtime costs and reduce
budget overruns.

RESOLVED paragraph that reads: "BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that
unless a policy is approved and implemented, use of the modem
