Staff Analysis of the Legislation

This legislation changes probate courts' jurisdiction over game and fish code violations. Under current law, probate judges have jurisdiction over violations of the game and fish code except for a first violation of hunting deer at night with the aid of a light and violation of any laws considered to be a high and aggravated nature. This legislation removes these exceptions.This legislation may increase the caseload in probate court, especially in the rural areas.
