| 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. |
