Const 1963, art 4, § 12 was amended in 1968 to create the State Officers Compensation Commission. The provision, which had only concerned legislative pay, added Michigan Supreme Court and executive pay. By adding the Governor and the Michigan Supreme Court to the State Officers Compensation Commission's jurisdiction, the provision largely obviated Const 1963, art 5, § 23 ("State elective executive officers, compensation") and created a partial conflict with Const 1963, art 6, § 7 ("Staff; budget; salaries of justices; fees"). The current practice in Michigan is that Const 1963, art 4, § 12 controls the process for all public officials listed in that provision. Note also that Const 1963, art 6, § 18 mentions Michigan Supreme Court pay.
Const 1963, art 6, § 18;
Salaries of justices of the supreme court, of the judges of the court of appeals, of the circuit judges within a circuit, and of the probate judges within a county or district, shall be uniform, and may be increased but shall not be decreased during a term of office except and only to the extent of a general salary reduction in all other branches of government.
Each of the judges of the circuit court shall receive an annual salary as provided by law. In addition to the salary received from the state, each circuit judge may receive from any county in which he regularly holds court an additional salary as determined from time to time by the board of supervisors of the county. In any county where an additional salary is granted, it shall be paid at the same rate to all circuit judges regularly holding court therein.
Const 1908, art 16, § 3;
Neither the legislature nor any municipal authority shall grant or authorize extra compensation to any public officer, agent, employee or contractor after the service has been rendered or the contract entered into. Salaries of public officers, except supreme court justices and circuit judges, shall not be increased, nor shall the salary of any public officer be decreased, after election or appointment.
