Senate Bill 1441 amends existing laws regarding the General Sessions and Juvenile Courts of Montgomery County, Tennessee, by establishing a fifth division within these courts. This new division will have the same jurisdiction and powers as the existing divisions. The bill also creates the position of a fifth General Sessions and Juvenile Courts Judge, who will be appointed until an election can be held. The appointed judge will serve until September 1, 2026, after which a judge will be elected for an eight-year term, with subsequent elections occurring every eight years thereafter.

Additionally, the bill modifies the rotation of the presiding judge among the divisions. The previous requirement for rotation every three years among the first three divisions has been changed to a five-year rotation that now includes all five divisions. The Clerk of the General Sessions and Juvenile Courts will also have expanded responsibilities to include the work of the new division. The bill requires a two-thirds vote from the county legislative body for it to take effect, with certain provisions becoming effective immediately upon passage.
