Qualifications and Selection of Commissioners:
Commissioners must be practicing attorneys for a minimum of ten years before becoming eligible to serve on
the Bench. Commissioners are subordinate judicial officers, appointed by the Judges, to preside over certain
types of cases, conduct trials, and perform other functions authorized by law. Commissioners hear cases and
render decisions, much like judges do, but there are certain types of cases that may only be heard by judges.
Typically, in Marin, the Commissioners hear misdemeanor, traffic, small claims, child support enforcement,
family law, juvenile dependency and delinquency, and probate matters.
Performance Monitoring:
Per GC 69957(b), court proceedings may be recorded for performance monitoring of subordinate judicial officers and temporary judges.
These recordings will not be available to the public.
