Summary

Executive Secretary of the Supreme Court of Virginia; supervision of magistrates. Requires the Executive Secretary of the Supreme Court to establish and require magistrates be available for performing certain duties related to issuing temporary detention orders. Under current law, the chief judge of each district court is responsible for this oversight. The change makes this responsibility consistent with the current supervisory structure set out in § 19.2-35, which grants supervisory authority over the magistrates to the Executive Secretary. This bill is a recommendation of the Committee on District Courts.
