The House Judiciary Committee has approved two proposed changes to the state’s constitution that deal with how long appellate judges’ terms should be and how they are re-elected. One proposal would limit judges and justices to serve a maximum of two full terms of office on each the Commonwealth, Superior and Supreme court benches. The other proposal would require judges to run for re-election just as magisterial district judges and other elective officeholders must do. The proposed changes now must be considered by the full House of Representatives.
