MR #04090 CIRCUIT COURT – VISITING JUDGE APPROPRIATION AND CREATION OF
COURT CLERK POSITION
The shortage of judicial resources in the Circuit and Probate Courts and the emphasis
on the criminal and family dockets has resulted in an increase in the number of older
cases on the civil docket. The Supreme Court has developed case flow management
standards that include time guidelines for case processing. For these reasons the
Circuit Court is requesting judicial relief in the form of a visiting judge who will be
assigned to the civil docket. One GF/GP funded Court Clerk position is also requested
to provide staff support for the visiting judge.

recommendation MR #04090 be adopted. Supported by Suarez.
