Third Chancery Court District; revise number of chancellors.

HB 1 revises Mississippi's Third Chancery Court District structure effective January 1, 2027. It updates the residency requirements for the three chancellor positions: Place One must reside in Tate, Panola, or Yalobusha Counties; Place Two in Carroll, Grenada, Montgomery, or Tallahatchie Counties; and Place Three in a broader set including Carroll, Grenada, Montgomery, Panola, Tallahatchie, Tate, and Yalobusha Counties. The bill also changes the district's county composition by adding Carroll and Tallahatchie Counties while removing DeSoto County. Additionally, it adjusts the candidate filing deadline for Place Three from February 2, 2026 (if the bill is signed by the governor by January 23, 2026) to May 1, 2026 (if not signed), with all candidates required to run in the November 2026 general election.
