Judicial selection in Nevada

You can help others learn about Nevada courts and judges by expanding this article. |
All potential judges in Nevada, whether on the Supreme Court or a District Court, run in a non-partisan election. Elected judges for both courts then serve six-year terms.
Retention for both courts is based upon re-election voting, and winners serve an additional six-year term.
If there is a vacancy on a court between elections, the Nevada Commission on Judicial Selection solicits and screens applicants and makes recommendations to the Governor, who appoints a mid-term replacement.
