          FISCAL NOTE, H-AM 2 (Administrative Office of Illinois Courts)       
          The cost for judgeships added by the bill is $5,718,867. The         
          additional cost to fill the Eleventh and Twelfth Circuit resi-

          compensation rates effective July 1, 2001. Employment benefit

          related expenses for each additional appellate court judge is

   numerical order of  the  subcircuits  for  the  purpose  of  assigning      
   resident judgeships to subcircuits.  Effective immediately.                 
          JUDICIAL NOTE, H-AM 2 (Office of the Illinois Courts)                
          The bill would increase the number of judges in the State by         
          adding 4 appellate court judges, 31 circuit judges, and 7            
          associate judges.

          (Department of Commerce and Community Affairs)
