SENATE BILL 1157
Out of committee (S 14th Ord)
Judges, senior judges, retirement
JUDGES – Amends existing law to revise provisions regarding judges’ retirements and to provide that certain judges shall not be eligible to serve as a senior judge and may not elect to receive retirement compensation.
RS30574 / S1157
This legislation encourages judges to complete their elected terms by removing the incentive to resign earlier in exchange for Plan B senior judge status. This legislation has no impact on retirement status for judges who are not requesting Plan B status. This legislation does not impact magistrate judges since they are not eligible for Plan B status.
There is no fiscal impact since there is already an expectation that judges will complete their elected terms.
