Fiscal Detail and Notes
	This bill will exempt court security officers from taking the 18 week " Basic Law Enforcement Training" at the Maine Criminal Justice Academy.  This exemption will result in a significant cost avoidance of unbudgeted costs to the Judicial Department.  The Judicial Department  will provide in service training and court-security training on the job and instruction will be provided by Judicial Branch supervisory and management staff to minimize the cost.
