What is the Judicial Salary Tracker?
The Survey of Judicial Salaries, published for over 40 years by the
National Center for State Courts (NCSC) with the support of state court administrative
offices across the United States, serves as the primary record of compensation for state
judicial officers and state court administrators. This website tracks judicial salary information since 1974, highlights recent special reports, and provides the most recently published salary information.
