§ 485.27 — Duties; Assignment

Plain-Language Summary

Allows the court administrator, with county board approval, to transfer certain non-judicial duties to the county board, including vital records, notary public functions, hospital liens, and marriage licenses. The county board assigns these duties to the appropriate department.

Practical Notes
When this applies: When transferring administrative duties from the court administrator to county government. Who this affects: Court administrators, county boards, and persons using these services. Key points: Transfer requires county board approval. If the court administrator’s office becomes fully state-funded, these functions automatically become county functions.
