HR 1727 United States House · 119th Congress

Rocky Mountain Judgeship Act

This bill adds two new federal district judgeships for Colorado and one for Idaho, increasing judicial capacity in those districts. It directs the President to appoint these judges with Senate confirmation, directly affecting the federal court systems in Colorado and Idaho. The bill also updates technical references in U.S. law to reflect the new judge count (Colorado: 9 total, Idaho: 3 total) and corrects a location reference in Colorado's court structure. These changes are administrative adjustments to court staffing and legal references, not new policy.
