Propose a change

Title 5 Courts

Write the words of this act the way you think they should read. Solon shows your change as a redline against the published text and pins it to that exact text, so it can never be applied to wording you did not see.

As published

5-9-105. Extending jurisdiction to try misdemeanors committed in violation of city or town ordinances.

The governing body of any city or town situate within a judicial district in which a circuit court is established may petition the supreme court to extend the jurisdiction of the circuit court to determine and try all persons charged with violation of the ordinances of the city or town. The contribution that the city or town will make toward the expenses of the circuit court whose jurisdiction includes enforcing the ordinances of the city or town shall be set and paid as provided by written contract of the circuit judges and the governing board of the city or town involved, with the approval of the supreme court.

Your wording

Your change, as a redline

5-9-105. Extending jurisdiction to try misdemeanors committed in violation of city or town ordinances.

Title

One line that says what changes, such as "Halve the dog tax".

Why

Who it helps, what it costs, what it fixes. It is what persuades people to support it.

A proposal here is not law. Support on Solon is evidence that people want the change; the official route says what it takes to make it law.
