Selection method
- See also: Partisan elections
There are 513 judges on the Illinois Circuit Court, each elected in partisan elections to six-year terms. Upon the completion of these terms, judges who wish to continue serving must compete in uncontested, nonpartisan retention elections.[3]
The chief judge of each circuit court is selected by peer vote; he or she serves in that capacity indefinitely.[3]
The circuit courts are also served by 391 associate judges, who are limited in that they may not preside over cases in which the defendant is charged with a felony (an offense punishable by one or more years in prison). Associate judges are appointed to four-year terms by circuit judges.[4][3]
Midterm vacancies are filled by Illinois Supreme Court appointment.[3]
Qualifications
To serve on this court, a judge must be:[3]
- a U.S. citizen;
- a circuit/county resident; and
- licensed to practice law in Illinois.
