A 2497 New Jersey General Assembly · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Revises reappointment process for administrative law judges, and establishes tenure upon reappointment with the Senate's advice and consent.

This bill changes New Jersey's process for reappointing administrative law judges. Judges nominated for reappointment after the bill's effective date will receive lifetime tenure, serving until mandatory retirement at age 70. The Senate must provide advice and consent for these reappointments, and the Senate Judiciary Committee will receive judicial evaluations to inform their decision. The bill also makes technical updates to streamline references to the director position in related statutes.
