Judiciary Department - Commission on Judicial Disabilities - Temporary Appointment

Signed into LawFiled Feb 6, 2026
Sponsor: Smith (D)
Latest Action

Assigned a chapter number, enactment subject to constitutional referendum - Chapter 878

May 31, 2026

Summary

The bill withdraws two previously adopted chapters that proposed a different amendment, then adds new language to the state constitution permitting the commission chair to recall a former member or ask the governor to appoint a temporary substitute or extend a member’s term. It sets the qualifications for those temporary members and requires the amendment to be voted on by Maryland voters in the November 2026 election. The change aims to keep the commission fully staffed and functional during gaps or conflicts of interest.
