Queen Anne's County - Circuit Court Judgeships

SB 877 increases the number of resident judges for Queen Anne's County's Circuit Court from one to two. The bill amends Maryland's Annotated Code (sections 1-501 and 1-503) to update the county's judge count specifically in section 1-503(17). This change directly affects Queen Anne's County residents by adding a second judge position to handle local court caseloads. The law takes effect on July 1, 2025.
