Composition

The County Judge/Executive, the head of government of the county, is an ex officio member of the Fiscal Court and its presiding officer. Constitutionally, the Fiscal Court may either be composed of the magistrates for the county or of three commissioners elected from the county at large (except from areas within the jurisdiction of an independent city). For the purposes of the Fiscal Court, the title "justice of the peace" has been replaced by "magistrate" under the Fiscal Court Act of 1974.
