A BILL to amend the Code of West Virginia, 1931, as amended, by adding thereto a new section, designated §7-7-4b, relating to eliminating part-time prosecutors; and authorizing an increase in salary for a part-time prosecutor who becomes a full-time prosecutor.

Be it enacted by the Legislature of West Virginia:
That the Code of West Virginia, 1931, as amended, be amended by adding thereto a new section, designated §7-7-4b, to read as follows:
ARTICLE 7. COMPENSATION OF ELECTED COUNTY OFFICIALS.
§7-7-4b. Elimination of part-time prosecuting attorneys.

Notwithstanding sections four and four-a of this article or any provision of this code to the contrary, a county commission may not have a part-time prosecutor. The county commission shall then compensate the prosecuting attorney at the same rate of compensation established for a prosecuting attorney in a Class V county: Provided, That nothing contained herein may be interpreted to affect the status of a prosecuting attorney who has heretofore, by proper order so entered, become full time.



NOTE: The purpose of this bill is to eliminate part-time prosecutors; and authorizing an increase in salary for a part-time prosecutor that becomes full-time.

This article is new; therefore, strike-throughs and underscoring have been omitted.
