HB 1417 Tennessee House · 114th Regular Session (2025-2026)

Tullahoma - Subject to local approval, extends the term of the current city judge by one year in order to have the election of the city judge coincide with the elections for members of the board of mayor and aldermen. - Amends Chapter 553 of the Acts of 1903; as amended.

HB 1417 extends the current city judge's term in Tullahoma by one year (until August 2026) to align their election with the city's mayor and aldermen elections. After this extension, the city judge will be elected every eight years during the same August municipal elections as the mayor and aldermen, beginning in 2026. The bill modifies existing election timing rules under Chapter 553 of the Acts of 1903 but does not change the judge's qualifications, compensation, or duties. This directly affects Tullahoma's city judge position and municipal election schedule.
