Joint resolution providing for a Joint Assembly to vote on the retention of seven Superior Court Judges and one Magistrate

JRS 16 is a procedural resolution that schedules a joint vote by Vermont's Senate and House of Representatives to decide whether to retain seven Superior Court Judges and one Magistrate. It directs both chambers to convene in a Joint Assembly on March 20, 2025, at 10:30 a.m. to cast votes on these judicial retention decisions. If the vote isn't completed on that day, the Assembly will meet daily (excluding weekends) until all retention votes are finalized. This resolution has been approved by both legislative chambers and does not alter judicial qualifications or court procedures - only setting the process for the retention vote.
