Title 204--JUDICIAL SYSTEM GENERAL PROVISIONS

PART VII.  ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICE OFPENNSYLVANIA COURTS

[204 PA. CODE CH. 211]

Judicial Salaries

[28 Pa.B. 3586]

   Pursuant to Article V, Section 10(c) of the Pennsylvania Constitution and Section 1721 of the Judicial Code, 42 Pa.C.S. § 1721, the Supreme Court of Pennsylvania authorizes the Court Administrator to annually obtain and publish in the Pennsylvania Bulletin the percentage increase in the Consumer Price Index for the most recent 12-month period and the judicial salaries effective January 1 of the subsequent year, as required by Act 51 of 1995, amending the Public Official Compensation Law, Act of September 30, 1983 (P. L. 160, No. 39), 65 P. S. § 366.1 et seq.

   Heretofore, the percentage increase was based upon the change in the September Philadelphia-Wilmington-Atlantic City, PA-NJ-DE-MD, Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers (CPI-U) as calculated by the U. S. Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics. However, the Bureau has determined that, beginning in 1998, this index will be calculated only bimonthly and will not include a calculation for September. Consequently, for 1998 and subsequent years, the percentage increase will be based upon the change in this index for the 12 month period ending in October.
