SACRAMENTO — The state’s appellate justices will be reimbursed up to $300 each in taxpayer money for costs associated with attending next month’s California Judges Association meeting in Monterey.

Chief Justice Tani Cantil-Sakauye and the administrative presiding justices of the state’s appellate courts authorized the payments, Judicial Council spokeswoman Leanne Kozak confirmed. The reimbursements will not extend to trial court judges.
