16-21-1901. Legislative findings and intent.
(a) It is not the purpose of this subchapter to repeal any laws fixing the fees of prosecuting attorneys, but rather to update and make more efficient the administration of law and order and the operation of county governments in the Fourteenth Judicial District.
(b) It is further recognized that for the most important and complicated work performed by the prosecuting attorney of the several counties of the Fourteenth Judicial District affected by this subchapter, fees are not provided by law. Therefore, it is the intent of this subchapter to provide the salaries set forth in this subchapter without regard to the amount of the prosecuting attorney's fees and emoluments earned or collected in the counties comprising the Fourteenth Judicial District.
