Staff Analysis of the Legislation

HB 991 revises the procedure for filling vacancies in the Sheriff's office.  The revised procedure is clearly outlined in statute and allows for the chief deputy to fill the vacancy until the next election is held.  If there is no chief deputy the probate judge must appoint someone within three days.
