SACRAMENTO Governor Jerry Brown on Tuesday unveiled a revised spending plan that contains no additional money for California’s courts, dashing the hopes of judicial leaders who were counting on improved state finances and their own spending overhaul to trigger more funding from Sacramento.
In his proposed 2013-14 budget, Brown acknowledged that the state has collected more tax revenues in the current fiscal year than his administration projected in January. The controller recently pegged the surplus at $4.5 billion.
