Enrolled HB 48 
 Relating to appropriations to the civil legal services fund. 
 _______________ 
 * Section 1. AS 37.05.590 is amended to read: 
 Sec. 37.05.590. Civil legal services fund. The civil legal services fund is 
 established as a special account in the general fund. The fund consists of 
 appropriations to it. Annually, the legislature may appropriate to the fund only from 
 amounts deposited into the general fund of the state under AS 09.17.020(j) and an 
 amount from the general fund that is up to 25 [10] percent of the filing fees received 
 by the Alaska Court System during the previous closed fiscal year. The legislature 
 may make appropriations from the fund to organizations that provide civil legal 
 services to low-income individuals. Nothing in this section creates a dedicated fund. In 
 this section, "low-income individual" means an individual with an income equal to or 
 less than 125 percent of the most recent federal poverty guidelines for Alaska set by 
 the United States Department of Health and Human Services.
