Pursuant to the authority vested in me, and upon consultation with the Administrative Board of the Courts, I hereby amend Part 126 of the Rules of the Chief Administrator by adding a new section 126.3, relating to the compensation and expenses of certain judges and justices presiding over off-hour arraignment parts, to read as follows, effective October 1, 2017:

§ 126.1. General. Each part-time judge or justice of a city, town or village court who is temporarily assigned to a city court pursuant to section 107 of the Uniform City Court Act, shall receive $250 per day, or such lesser amount as his or her order of assignment may specify, for each day or part thereof during which such judge or justice actually performs judicial duties in accordance with such assignment in a courtroom or other facility designated for court appearances, provided that a judge or justice who performs such judicial duties for one half day or less shall receive $125 per day. There shall be no compensation for out-of-court work performed by any such judge or justice while on temporary assignment. Such judge or justice shall be reimbursed for out-of-pocket expenses reasonably and necessarily incurred in the performance of his or her duties while on temporary assignment in accordance with the provisions of Part 102 of this Title.

§ 126.2. [Temporary Assignment] Each part-time judge or justice of a city, town or village court who is temporarily assigned to a town or village court pursuant to section 106(2) of the Uniform Justice Court Act shall receive compensation as set forth in section 126.1 of this Part if the temporary assignment is the result of the death, disability or other incapacity of a justice in the receiving court, or any vacancy in that office.
