Overview
This bill would allow retired New Jersey judges who are receiving a pension or retirement allowance to continue practicing law. Currently, state law prohibits retired judges from practicing law while receiving these benefits. The bill amends existing law to remove this restriction, allowing retired judges to temporarily return to legal practice under the supervision of the state’s judicial system. It also outlines procedures for recalling retired judges for temporary service and ensures they receive compensation comparable to current judges.
