San Bernardino and Riverside superior courts are recommended to regain $2.36 million and $3 million in funding respectively, according to the agenda for the Judicial Council’s Feb. 21 meeting.
This funding is not new, but a restoration from prior budget cuts, according to the agenda.
California’s Budget Act of 2024 cut funding to superior courts by $97 million. The 2025-26 Governor’s Budget included a partial restoration of that funding. The cut is now only $55 million, instead of $97 million.
The Trial Court Budget Advisory Committee recommends San Bernardino Superior Court to receive $138 million in general
