THIS REPORT OF JUDICIAL SALARIES LISTS SALARY FIGURES AS OF APRIL 30, 1977.

Abstract

ONE OF THE TABLES INCLUDED LISTS FOR EACH STATE COURT SYSTEM THE DATE OF LAST SALARY CHANGE FOR HIGHEST, INTERMEDIATE APPELLATE AND GENERAL TRIAL COURT JUDGES. THIS TABLE, LIKE THE 'RANK ORDER OF JUDICIAL SALARIES' TABLE, UTILIZES SALARIES PAID TO ASSOCIATE JUSTICES FOR THE HIGHEST COURTS AND INTERMEDIATE APPELLATE COURTS. THE GENERAL TRIAL COURT SALARIES REFER TO THE STATE-PAID SALARY WITHOUT SUPPLEMENTS. SALARIES WHICH INCLUDE SUPPLEMENTS APPEAR IN PARENTHESES IMMEDIATELY BENEATH THE FIGURES FOR THE STATE-PAID SALARIES. THE SECTION DEALING WITH JUDICIAL SALARIES IN COURTS OF LIMITED OR SPECIAL JURISDICTIONS IS DIVIDED INTO SEVEN CATEGORIES ON A JURISDICTIONAL BASIS. THE FIRST APPENDIX LISTS SALARIES SCHEDULED TO TAKE EFFECT IN THE FUTURE AND PENDING LEGISLATION WHICH COULD AFFECT JUDICIAL SALARIES. APPENDIX 2 INDICATES THE STATES WHICH PROVIDE FOR 'FLOATING' JUDICIAL SALARIES ON THE CONSUMER PRICE INDEX OR OTHER COST OF LIVING ADJUSTMENTS. (AUTHOR ABSTRACT) ...KAP
