Chapter 6. Office of Judicial Administration
33-24-6-10. Trial Court Districts; Transfer of Judges

Sec. 10. (a) The chief administrative officer shall, with the approval of the supreme court, divide the state geographically into at least eight (8) trial court districts.
(b) On the basis of relevant information compiled by the chief administrative officer concerning the volume and nature of judicial workload, the chief administrative officer shall recommend to the supreme court the temporary transfer of any judge or judges. The supreme court shall consider the recommendation and temporarily transfer any judge of a trial court of general or special jurisdiction to another court if the temporary transfer is determined to be beneficial to facilitate the judicial work of the court to which the judge is transferred without placing an undue burden on the court from which the judge is transferred. However, a judge may not be temporarily transferred to a court in another county within the district the judge normally serves that, at its nearest point, is more than forty (40) miles from the seat of the county the judge normally serves unless the judge consents to the transfer.
