§ 27-24-04 — Compensation and expenses of person appointed temporary judge

1. A temporary judge appointed as provided in section 27-24-01 must receive as
compensation for each day of service in the performance of duties under the
appointment an amount equal to five percent of the gross monthly salary of a regularly
elected or appointed judge of the court in which the temporary judge is to serve, or
one-half of that daily compensation for services of one-half day or less. The
compensation must be paid upon the certificate of the temporary judge that the
services were performed for the number of days shown in the certificate and must be
paid in the same manner as the salaries of the regularly elected or appointed judges
are paid.
2. A temporary judge appointed as provided in section 27-24-01 or assigned as provided
in section 27-24-02 to serve outside the county in which the judge resides or maintains
an office must receive, in addition to daily compensation, reimbursement for travel
expenses necessarily incurred in the performance of duties as temporary judge. The
expenses must be reimbursed upon the certification by the temporary judge that the
expenses were actually incurred, in the same manner as like expenses of regularly
elected or appointed judges are paid.
