Joint Committee on Judicial Retention adjourns after no testimony

The Joint Committee on Judicial Retention adjourned at 6:33 p.m. after receiving no additional testimony, the committee's vice chair said.

The committee's vice chair, identified in the transcript only by title, told attendees, "We have received no further indication that there's anyone left to testify," and then "entertained a motion to adjourn." A member said, "So moved," and the committee closed the meeting on a voice vote after the vice chair called for those in favor to "signify by saying aye. Aye."

The meeting record contains no further substantive discussion of judicial-retention measures, ballot language, candidate evaluations, or testimony on retention questions. The adjournment was procedural: the committee ended its session because no one remained to speak. The transcript does not specify any next meeting date, follow-up actions, or additional documents to be considered.

Because the transcript contains only a short procedural motion and a voice vote, there are no formal motions, ordinance numbers, or policy texts recorded for the committee to consider in this session.

The committee's brief adjournment leaves the subject of judicial retention without recorded testimony at this meeting; any future hearing dates or materials were not specified in the transcript.
