| 28 | 28 | BE IT ENACTED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF THE STATE OF ALASKA: 2 | |
| 29 | 29 | * Section 1. AS 37.05.590 is amended to read: 3 | |
| 30 | 30 | Sec. 37.05.590. Civil legal services fund. The civil legal services fund is 4 | |
| 31 | 31 | established as a special account in the general fund. The fund consists of 5 | |
| 32 | 32 | appropriations to it. Annually, the legislature may appropriate to the fund only from 6 | |
| 33 | 33 | amounts deposited into the general fund of the state under AS 09.17.020(j) and an 7 | |
| 34 | 34 | amount from the general fund that is up to 25 [10] percent of the filing fees received | |
| 35 | 35 | 8 | |
| 36 | 36 | by the Alaska Court System during the previous closed fiscal year. The legislature 9 | |
| 37 | 37 | may make appropriations from the fund to organizations that provide civil legal 10 | |
| 38 | 38 | services to low-income individuals. Nothing in this section creates a dedicated fund. In 11 | |
| 39 | 39 | this section, "low-income individual" means an individual with an income equal to or 12 | |
| 40 | 40 | less than 125 percent of the most recent federal poverty guidelines for Alaska set by 13 | |
| 41 | 41 | the United States Department of Health and Human Services. 14 |
