Created in 1980, the Judicial Compensation
Commission makes recommendations to effect judi-
cial compensation that will attract highly qualified
persons to the bench and enable judges to serve
without economic hardship (Chapter 717, Acts of
1980).
The Commission reviews judicial salaries and
pensions every two years and must submit its
recommendations at least every four years to the
Governor and General Assembly. The
Commission's salary recommendations are intro-
duced as a joint resolution in each house of the
General Assembly by the fifteenth day of the ses-
sion. While the General Assembly may not increase
recommended salaries, it may decrease them. If it
fails to adopt or amend the joint resolution within
fifty days after its introduction, the salaries recom-
mended by the Commission do apply Commission
recommendations with respect to pensions are in-
troduced in the form of legislation by the Senate
President and the House Speaker and become ef-
fective only if passed by both houses.
The Commission is comprised of seven members
appointed by the Governor for six-year terms. No
more than three members may be individuals ad-
mitted to practice law in the State. In nominating
and appointing members, special consideration is
given to persons knowledgeable in compensation
practices and financial matters. Two members are
chosen from nominees of the Senate President, two
from nominees of the House Speaker, and one from
nominees of the Maryland State Bar Association.
Two members are appointed at large. Members
serve without compensation (Code Courts and
Judicial Proceedings Article, sec. 1-708).
