Off-Hours Arraignment Parts

Each judge or justice of a city, town or village court temporarily assigned to an off-hours arraignment part established by the Chief Administrator pursuant to Judiciary Law § 212(1)(w) shall receive $400 per day, or $200 per half-day, for each day or half-day period of service during which such judge or justice performs one or more judicial functions in the off-hours part. Where an assignment requires a participating judge or justice to remain available on-call for service in an off-hours arraignment part, there shall be no compensation for any day or half-day period of service that does not include at least one in-court judicial function. No state-paid judge may receive compensation under this Part for service in an off-hours arraignment part in lieu of regularly scheduled service in a state paid court without the approval of the Chief Administrator.
