15200
. The Legislature hereby declares that: (1) The uniform
administration of justice throughout the State is a matter of
statewide interest; (2) The prosecution and conduct of trials of
persons accused of homicide should not be hampered or delayed by any
lack of funds available to the counties for such purposes; (3) A
county should not be required to bear the entire costs of a trial
involving a homicide if such costs will seriously impair the finances
of the county; and (4) It is the intention of the Legislature in
enacting this chapter to provide for state assistance to counties in
such emergency situations.
