Salaries and allowances for judges-amendments.

SF 71 updates annual salaries for Wyoming judges and justices to reflect 2023 general session rates, effective July 1, 2024. It sets new salaries at $187,250 for supreme court justices, $171,200 for district court judges, and $153,700 for circuit court judges. The bill also authorizes housing cost-of-living assistance for judges and justices living in counties with housing costs significantly above the state average, with rules developed by the supreme court. This assistance must align with existing state employee housing policies established by the Department of Administration and Information.
