All Alaskan voters have the opportunity
to vote to retain Supreme Court justices.
By law, voters are allowed to decide if judges should
be retained. Each judge in Alaska is subject to a retention
election after a certain number of years on the bench. The
number of years between retention elections depends upon the
court in which the judge sits.
- Supreme Court: 10 years
- Court of Appeals: 8 years
- Superior Court: 6 years
- District Court: 4 years
Visit the Alaska Judicial Council for judicial evaluations and more information on judicial retention.
