Modifies provisions relating to certain judicial circuits

Summary

HB 2968 repeals a set of existing statutes and creates new ones that reshape how circuit judges are assigned to divisions, how many judges serve in each district, and when they are elected or appointed. It affects judges, commissioners, and voters in dozens of counties by redefining judge‑seat numbers, converting some commissioner roles to associate circuit judges, and adjusting election cycles. The changes were intended to update the structure of the state’s judicial circuits but the measure did not pass.
