justices; judges; mandatory retirement age

This constitutional amendment proposes raising Arizona's mandatory retirement age for judges and justices from 70 to 75. If approved by voters, it would require justices and judges of courts of record to retire upon reaching age 75, directly affecting all current and future judicial appointees in Arizona. The amendment updates vacancy rules to align with the new retirement age and clarifies that retired judges may temporarily return to active duty. It requires voter approval at the next general election to take effect.
