SALARIES OF JUDGES – Amends existing law to revise provisions regarding salaries of judges.
This bill adjusts Idaho judges' salaries by setting specific yearly amounts for different court levels starting in 2024. Supreme court justices' pay increases from $169,508 (effective July 2024) to $207,655 (effective July 2027), while lower court judges receive fixed amounts $6,000-$8,000 less than higher courts (e.g., district judges earn $6,000 less than court of appeals judges). The changes take effect July 1, 2025, as declared an emergency by the legislature.
