Comptroller to release judicial weighted caseload study tomorrow

Senate Finance, Ways and Means Committee · February 10, 2026

Summary

The Comptroller's office said it will publish a judicial weighted caseload study for all 32 judicial districts — the first update since 2020 — to inform resource allocation for judges and courts.

The Comptroller told senators the office will release an updated judicial weighted caseload study the day after the hearing that shows the availability of judicial resources across Tennessee’s 32 judicial districts and how full‑time judge counts align with case loads.

"Tomorrow, the comptroller's office will publish a new judicial weighted caseload study for each of the state's 32 judicial districts," the Comptroller said, adding the report includes updated case weights and a statewide map. The study, paused during COVID and not revised since 2020 (case weights dated back to 2013), will inform discussions about judicial staffing and resource allocation across districts.

Members welcomed the forthcoming data and said they would review district-level results to consider whether adjustments to judicial resources are warranted during appropriation deliberations.
