2005 California Government Code Sections 28000-28008 CHAPTER 1. GENERAL

28000.  Unless the board of supervisors of a county provides by
ordinance for more frequent pay periods, the salaries of the officers
named in this title and all county deputies, clerks, and employees
who are entitled to salaries shall be paid monthly out of the county
treasury.  The sworn statement and copy of the treasurer's receipt
for all fees and other money required to be paid into the county
treasury required by Section 28005 shall be required to be filed in
such event only prior to payment of the final installment of the
salary of any officer for any month.
28001.  Except in those counties in which the board of supervisors
has by ordinance fixed a different schedule of dates or pay periods
for the payment of salaries of the officers, deputies, clerks and
employees of the several departments and institutions of the county
government, as authorized in Section 28003, the auditor shall, on the
first day of each month, or the first day following the specified
pay period draw his warrant upon the treasurer in favor of each
officer, deputy, clerk, and employee for the amount of salary due him
for the preceding month or pay period.
28002.  On presentation the treasurer shall pay the warrants out of
the salary fund of the county treasury.
28003.  (a) In any county the board of supervisors may by ordinance
fix a date or schedule of dates for the payment of salaries of the
officers, deputies, clerks, and employees of the several departments
and institutions of the county government.
   (b) If the county processes the payroll of the trial courts in
that county, the board of supervisors shall also fix a date or
schedule of dates for the payment of salaries of those judges and
other officers and employees of the trial courts whose salaries are
processed by the county.
   (c) In any court that processes its own payroll, the court shall
fix a date or schedule of dates for the payment of the salaries of
the judges and other officers and the employees of that court.
   (d) Nothing in this section shall affect the processing by the
state of payroll for judges.
28004.  If the board of supervisors by ordinance so provides, the
salaries of all county officers, deputies, clerks, and employees,
including the employees of the several road districts, may be paid
monthly out of the county treasury on warrants drawn by the auditor
upon the treasurer in favor of each of the officers, deputies,
clerks, and employees.
28005.  The auditor shall not draw his or her warrant for the salary
of any officer for any month until the officer has first filed with
him or her the forms required by Section 24353.
28007.  Notwithstanding any provision of law to the contrary, no
officer or employee of a county shall be liable for any acts done by
him, prior to June 2, l955, in connection with having paid the
monthly salary of an employee of such county if such employee has
performed, during the month for which he is paid, the duties required
for the position for which he is paid.
28008.  The board of supervisors may designate one or more state or
national banks, one or more state or federal savings and loan
associations, or one or more state or federal credit unions, doing
business in the county as disbursing agent for the auditor to pay the
salaries of such persons whose salaries are paid from the county
treasury as may from time to time elect by a written instrument
delivered to the auditor, to receive their salaries from such
disbursing agent.  In lieu of drawing separate salary warrants for
such persons as shall have elected to be paid their salaries by such
disbursing agent, the auditor may deliver to such disbursing agent a
single warrant for the total combined salaries of such persons on or
before the designated payday, together with the information necessary
to disburse such salaries.  The board of supervisors may enter into
written contracts with such state and national banks, state or
federal savings and loan associations, or state and federal credit
unions, for their services as such disbursing agents on such terms as
the board deems appropriate.
