BY: Public Services Committee, Lawrence A. Obrecht, Chairperson
IN RE: Probate Court, Creation of one (1) PTNE Court Service Officer II position
To the Oakland County Board of Commissioners
Chairperson, Ladies and Gentlemen:
WHEREAS the Court Service Officers of the Probate Court are primarily
focused on providing legal notices and proofs of service as required to meet the
court's trial and hearing schedule; and
WHEREAS the workload of the Court Service Officers has allowed insufficient
attention to bench warrant responsibilities; and
WHEREAS the total outstanding balance of bench warrants relating to
financial show cause issues is $359,000, about half of which is realistically
collectable; and
WHEREAS the Probate Court requests the establishment of one (1) 1,000 hour
PTNE Court Service Officer II for dedicated attention to bench warrant matters;
and
WHEREAS position continuation is dependent on bench warrant related
revenues sufficient to Cover position costs.
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the Oakland County Board of Commissioners
approves creation of one (1) Governmental Court Service Officer II 1,000
hour/year PTNE position in the Probate/Judicial Support Division of Probate Court
(34402),
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that position continuation is dependent on bench
warrant related revenues sufficient to cover position costs.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that Probate Court report back to the Public
Services Committee at its first meeting in February, 1996, with all financial
information, including revenues collected and outstanding, position costs, etc.
Chairperson, on behalf of the Public Services Committee, I move the
adoption of the foregoing resolution.
