Opinion on Registration Law Sparks County Pay Dispute
Deputy Attorney General Patrick interprets the registration law to allow registry agents to draw 25 cents per name from county treasuries for each original registration. He says supplemental registration lists under section 12 are county responsibility, with the law only requiring reasonable compensation. The ruling excludes Reno township justice of the peace from the new law due to a 1913 statute fixing his salary.
