Modifies provisions relating to circuit judges in the 19th judicial circuit
This bill modifies Missouri law governing judicial positions in Cole County (the 19th judicial circuit). It establishes three circuit judges for Cole County, with specific election timelines: one elected in 1982, one in 1984, and the third position filled by a judge appointed in 2024 and elected in 2026. The bill also creates two associate circuit judge positions in Cole County, effective 2021, with the second associate judge first elected in 2020. These changes directly affect Cole County residents and the judicial staffing structure for county courts.
