SB 1432 Tennessee Senate · 114th Regular Session (2025-2026)

Montgomery County - Subject to local approval, creates a fourth General Sessions and Juvenile Court of Montgomery County. - Amends Chapter 232 of the Private Acts of 1953; as amended.

SB 1432 proposed creating a fourth division for Montgomery County's General Sessions and Juvenile Courts in Tennessee, amending existing court structure. The bill would establish a new judge position for this division (initially appointed until 2026, then elected every eight years), expand the court clerk's duties to cover the new division, and adjust the presiding judge rotation to include all four divisions. It required approval by Montgomery County’s legislative body (which was not obtained, as the bill was withdrawn on March 4, 2025). This was a procedural change affecting Montgomery County's local court operations, not a policy impacting residents directly.
