Fourth Judicial District Attorney Michael Allen is asking El Paso County for a $50,000 salary increase for his own position, spokesperson Kate Singh said Tuesday.

The request is part of a department budget that the El Paso Board of County Commissioners will decide on at the end of the year.

Allen made a presentation this week on budget critical needs for his office, which included creation of two new District Attorney’s Office jobs and an ongoing $100,000 operation expenses increase for its 2025 budget. The presentation did not discuss changes to existing salaries, including his own.
