Utah's court system would gain several new judgeships under this bill, which increases the number of authorized judges across multiple courts. Specifically, it adds one district court judge each to the Second, Fourth, Fifth, and Sixth Judicial Districts, three additional district court judges to the Third Judicial District, one juvenile court judge to the Fourth Judicial District, and one additional judge to the Utah Court of Appeals, bringing that court from seven to eight judges. These changes, which would take effect May 6, 2026, do not include any funding for the new positions.
