Modifies provisions relating to the appointment of commissioners in the 7th judicial circuit

Summary

The measure changes how family‑court commissioners are appointed in Missouri’s 7th judicial circuit and several other circuits. It allows judges to name commissioners, gives them four‑year terms, and requires the state to pay their salaries directly. The change matters because it could increase the number of paid commissioners and standardize their qualifications and benefits.
