Iowa Judicial Nominating Commissions Implement New Communication Rule 2025-01-19A new rule has been implemented for Iowa's judicial nominating commissions, which select nominees for district and appellate judge positions. The rule prohibits commission members from discussing any applicants with the Governor before the nominations are submitted to her for appointment. This amendment was approved in December 2024 as part of a review of the Uniform Rules of Procedure. The previous rule was considered confusing and did not clearly define when commissioners could communicate with the Governor. The new rule aims to maintain the impartiality of the judicial selection process and limit political influence. |
