Synopsis As Introduced
Amends the Counties Code. In provisions concerning coroner's fees, increases the fee for autopsy reports, cremation permits, transcripts, toxicology reports, and miscellaneous reports. Provides that a coroner may waive the permit fee to cremate a dead human body if the coroner determines that the person is indigent and unable to pay the permit fee or under other special circumstances. Provides that the fee for an electronic file containing a picture obtained by the coroner shall be the actual cost or $3.00, whichever is greater. Effective immediately.

Senate Committee Amendment No. 1
Deletes everything after the enacting clause. Reinserts the introduced bill with changes. Adds that the county treasurer shall establish a special account in the county treasury for the deposit of the coroner's fees (now, the fees are deposited into the general fund of the county). Provides that moneys in the special account shall be used solely for the purchase of electronic and forensic identification equipment or other related supplies and the operating expenses of the coroner's office. Effective immediately.
