SB 949 Missouri Senate · 2026 Regular Session

Creates the offense of judicial malfeasance

SB 949 is a very new bill (prefiled in 2025, first read in 2026) that would create a new criminal offense called "judicial malfeasance." The provided context does not include any details about what specific actions would constitute this offense, who would be affected (e.g., judges, court staff), or how it would be enforced. Since the official abstract only states the bill's title without describing its provisions, a substantive summary cannot be generated from the available information.
