§ 18-86. Procedure upon absence of a judge; appointment of special judge.

Latest version.

If a judge of a division of the general sessions court fails to attend, cannot preside in a pending cause, or for any reason fails to hold court, the matters coming on for hearing in that division shall be reassigned to the divisions open for business. At any time the administrative judge determines that for whatever reason less than a full complement of judges is available for court, and that the appointment of a special judge is required by reason of the volume of matters coming to be heard, a special judge may be appointed as provided by law.
