Bill > HB3086

This bill adds one additional associate circuit judge specifically for Miller County, which is part of the twenty-sixth judicial circuit. This new judge will not be counted towards the standard formula used to determine how many associate circuit judges a county is allowed, as outlined in section 478.320 of the Revised Statutes of Missouri (RSMo). The governor will appoint this judge, who will serve until January 1, 2029, with an election for the position to be held in 2028. This action is being taken to address the judicial needs of Miller County within the broader twenty-sixth judicial circuit, which also includes Camden, Laclede, Moniteau, and Morgan counties.
