Bill	Sale of the West Los Angeles Courthouse.	Existing law authorizes the Judicial Council to dispose of surplus court facilities pursuant to a specified process that requires, among other things, the Judicial Council to consult with the county where the court facility is located, offer the facility to the county at a fair market value before offering it to another state agency or local government agency, and deposit the funds received from a sale into the State Court Facilities Construction Fund. The process further requires the Judicial Council, if the court facility was previously the responsibility of a county, to comply with certain requirements applicable to the sale of surplus state property. Existing law establishes the Immediate and Critical Needs Account of the State Court Facilities Construction Fund, for the planning, design, construction, rehabilitation, renovation, replacement, or acquisition of court facilities and for trial court operations, as defined. The California Constitution requires the proceeds from the sale of surplus state property to be deposited into the Special Fund for Economic Uncertainties, a continuously appropriated fund.	us/states/ca	California Legislature	20172018	AB 2309	California AB 2309 (20172018)	bill	Sale of the West Los Angeles Courthouse.	enacted	Bloom	5	25	10	2018-02-13	2018-09-19	openstates	ocd-bill/e2c22c56-07fe-4e02-bbc4-0567dadfc80f	http://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billNavClient.xhtml?bill_id=201720180AB2309	9b7f60dad1a3ff29fae3b48ca20f82a86a5facd0e47ea18042cc26645e024a49	2026-07-01	https://data.openstates.org/daily/2026-07-01/public.pgdump	2026-07-06	reported	legislation bill us-ca
