Selection method

See also: Partisan elections

There are 144 judges on the Alabama Circuit Courts, each elected to six-year terms. They appear on partisan election ballots statewide and must face re-election if they wish to serve again. The chief judge of a circuit court is selected by peer vote and serves a three-year term.[2]

Only voters residing in a particular circuit may vote for the circuit judge of that region.[2]

Qualifications
To serve on this court, a judge must be:

  • licensed to practice law for at least five years;
  • a resident of his or her circuit for at least one year;
  • under the age of 70 at the time of election (judges who turn 70 in office may serve until their term expires)[2][3]
