Crumpacker, City Attorney DATE: Oct . 28, 1971 TOz Members of the Common Council SUBJECT- Resolution for Additional Appropriation in Account G-262 , "Law Books" , and Transfer of same from Account G-721 , "Furniture and Fixtures" . Upon moving the old City Court law library up to the legal department , I found that many volumes were missing and that some of the sets were not up to date . Among the more important deficiencies were the following: 33 volumes of the Indiana Supreme and Appellate Court reports were missing. The pocket parts of the Indiana Law Encyclopedia had not been brought up to date since 1957 , and 4 obsolete volumes had not been replaced. A law book without the current pocket part is virtually worthless as you always have to check everything said in the bound text against the latest court decisions and statutory amendments as reported in the pocket parts . In addition to replacing the missing volumes and bringing all of the sets up to date , I would also like to buy the 20 available volumes of the Opinions of the Attorney General of Indiana, as these are invaluable in making statutory interpretations - something I am called on to do almost continuously . All of this will cost more than the $800 .00 originally appro- priated to Account G-262 , "Law Books" , for 1971 . The balance in this account as of this date is $237 .52 . We presently have bills outstanding or anticipated totalling $166 . 10 . The additional expenditures I would like to make total $308.00 , which are one-time items which would not be repeated in future years . This would indicate a need for an additional amount of $236 . 58, but I have rounded this off at $250 .00 to cover contingencies . I have this amount available in Account G-721, "Furniture and Fixtures" , for which I do not anticipate a need during 1971, and am requesting a transfer from G-721 to G-262 . S . J .
