The Administrative Office of the Courts shall provide the advance within 15 days after the request is received, but no earlier than February 1, 2006, if all of the following conditions are met:

(1) The law library board of trustees certifies that the law library is experiencing financial hardship caused by an increase in the time between collection of a fee by the court and the receipt of the money by the law library fund resulting from the implementation of the new distribution method for money received from superior court filing fees.

(2) The law library board of trustees certifies that the law library is operating under this chapter.

(3) The Administrative Office of the Courts receives the request on or before February 15, 2006.
