Magistrates Clash Over Fees In February County Payments
The county paid eight magistrates a total of $1,095.80 in February for handling cases while two magistrates refused Prosecutor Thornhill’s order to issue warrants only if prepaid. Thornhill called for advance collection of costs from witnesses or prior approval for warrants, sparking legal friction with several squires who contested the instruction.
