In 2018, the North Carolina General Assembly passed House Bill 717, revising the state superior court. Baddour's seat on the Third Division was absorbed into the Fourth Division.
The North Carolina Superior Courts are split into five divisions and 48 districts. Superior court judges rotate among the districts within their division every six months.[4] However, superior court judges are elected by voters in their district and must reside in the district in which they are elected.[5]
