Relating to court administration, including the election and term of a local administrative district judge and an annual court administration conference.

SB 23 amends Texas law governing the election and term of local administrative district judges in counties with multiple district courts. It sets a two-year term limit for these judges (or the remainder of a term if elected before the second anniversary), prohibits election based on rotation or seniority, and requires the regional presiding judge to break deadlocks if judges cannot agree. The bill also creates an annual court administration conference for regional presiding judges, local administrative judges, and court administrators to discuss court budgets, case statistics, and administrative duties. These changes apply only to elections occurring after the bill's effective date.
