    §  215.  Special  provisions  applicable to appropriations made to the
  judiciary in the legislature  and  judiciary  budget.    1.  The  amount
  appropriated  for any program within a major purpose within the schedule
  of appropriations made to the  judiciary  in  any  fiscal  year  in  the
  legislature  and  judiciary  budget  for  such  year may be increased or
  decreased by interchange  with  any  other  program  within  that  major
  purpose  with  the approval of the chief administrator of the courts who
  shall file such approval with the department of audit  and  control  and
  copies  thereof  with the senate finance committee and the assembly ways
  and means committee except that the total amount  appropriated  for  any
  major  purpose  may  not  be  increased  or  decreased  by more than the
  aggregate of five percent  of  the  first  five  million  dollars,  four
  percent  of the second five million dollars and three percent of amounts
  in excess of ten million dollars  of  an  appropriation  for  the  major
  purpose. The allocation of maintenance undistributed appropriations made
  for  later  distribution  to  major purposes contained within a schedule
  shall not be deemed to be part of such total increase or decrease.
    2. Notwithstanding any other provision of law, monies appropriated  to
  the judiciary in any fiscal year in the legislature and judiciary budget
  for  such  year  may  be used in part to reimburse state-paid judges and
  justices, except those of city courts outside the city of New York,  for
  transportation  and  travel  expenses  in  accordance  with  section two
  hundred  twenty-two   of   this   chapter;   provided,   however,   such
  reimbursement  may be up to but not in excess of such maximum amount per
  day as the chief administrator shall prescribe by rule.
