Ind. Code § 33-24-2-4

Current through P.L. 171-2024

Section 33-24-2-4 - Expiration of term if retention is rejected

This section applies to a justice:

(1) who files a statement under section 2 of this chapter; and

(2) whose retention is rejected by the electorate.

The term of a justice ends when the secretary of state issues a certificate under IC 3-12-5-1 stating that the justice has been removed. However, if the justice has filed a petition for a recount under IC 3-12-11, the term of the justice does not end until the state recount commission has issued a certificate under IC 3-12-11-18 stating that the electorate has rejected the retention of the justice.
