§ 23. Compensation
In the performance of judicial duties, the specially assigned judicial officer shall
be entitled to a per diem equal to the daily compensation authorized for the judicial
position to which he or she is assigned and necessary expenses. An acting judge in
Criminal Division of the Superior Court shall receive $75.00 a day and necessary expenses.
Payment of compensation for special judicial assignments shall not diminish the retirement
compensation of retired judicial officers. However, a retired judicial officer shall
not receive total annual compensation in excess of the annual salary of a Superior
judge. Active judicial officers shall receive the compensation of their regular judicial
office or that of the office to which they are specially assigned, whichever is greater. (Added 1973, No. 268 (Adj. Sess.), § 2, eff. April 1, 1974; amended 1977, No. 235 (Adj. Sess.), § 2; 1979, No. 181 (Adj. Sess.), § 4; 2009, No. 154, § 238.)
