Judges Up For Retention
Kansas Supreme Court and Appellate Court Judges are appointed. In Johnson County, our judges are appointed.
Periodically, after these judges are appointed, the voters are asked to retain or not retain these judges. The following resources will provide you with information about the judges to inform your vote about retention. (Note: This year no Supreme Court Justices are up for retention.)
Appellate Judge Evaluations
The Kansas State Bar provides evaluations of the Appellate Judges. These evaluations can be found here.
