This bill permits the Family Court and the Court of Common Pleas to temporarily assign retired Commissioners duties at the designation of each Court’s Chief Judge with the consent of the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court. The retired Commissioners must have been in good standing at the time of their retirement, agree to the assignment and not be involved or employed in any position that would create a conflict, including the private practice of law, holding any state office, or being employed by the State in any capacity. The ability to designate a retired Commissioner would allow each Court the leeway to maintain its current workflow without interruption in the event a Commissioner was unavailable for a period of time.
