Missouri Plan (original) (raw)
The Missouri Plan (originally the Missouri Nonpartisan Court Plan, also known as the merit plan, or some variation) is a method for the selection of judges. It originated in Missouri in 1940 and has been adopted by many states of the United States. Similar methods are used in some other countries. At the general election soonest after the completion of one year's service, the judge must stand in a retention election. If a majority votes against retention, the judge is removed from office, and the process starts anew. Otherwise, the judge serves out a full term.

| dbo:abstract | Le Plan Missouri (à l'origine le Missouri Nonpartisan Court Plan, également connu sous le nom de plan de mérite) est une méthode de sélection des juges. Comme son nom l'indique, il a été inventé au Missouri en 1940 et a été adopté par de nombreux États des États-Unis. Des méthodes similaires sont utilisées dans certains autres pays. Dans le cadre du Plan Missouri, une commission non partisane examine les candidats à un poste de magistrat. La commission envoie ensuite au gouverneur une liste des candidats considérés comme les plus qualifiés. Le gouverneur dispose alors de soixante jours pour sélectionner un candidat dans la liste. Si le gouverneur ne fait pas de sélection dans les soixante jours, la commission procède à la sélection. Aux élections générales le plus tôt après la fin d'un an de service, le juge doit se soumettre à un vote de rétention. Si une majorité vote contre le maintien en poste, le juge est démis de ses fonctions et le processus recommence. Si la majorité vote en faveur du maintien en poste, le juge effectue un mandat complet. En 2016, 38 états fédérés américains appliquent une méthode de sélection et le vote de rétention fondée sur le mérite pour certains juges ou tous les juges. Vingt-cinq états fédérés américains ont une commission de nomination pour sélectionner tous les candidats des cours d'État de dernier ressort. Huit états fédérés américains ont des commissions qui remplissent les vacances intérimaires dans les plus hautes juridictions. Vingt états fédérés américains utilisent des votes de rétention pour les juges qui souhaitent siéger dans les plus hautes juridictions d'État au-delà de leur mandat initial.

It originated in Missouri in 1940 and has been adopted by many states of the United States. Similar methods are used in some other countries. Under the Plan, a non-partisan commission reviews candidates for a judicial vacancy. The commission then sends to the governor a list of candidates considered best qualified. The governor then has sixty days to select a candidate from the list. If the governor does not make a selection within sixty days, the commission makes the selection. At the general election soonest after the completion of one year's service, the judge must stand in a retention election. If a majority votes against retention, the judge is removed from office, and the process starts anew. Otherwise, the judge serves out a full term. As of 2016, 38 states have a form of merit-based selection and retention method for some or all judges. Twenty-five states have a nominating commission to screen all candidates of the state courts of last resort. Eight states have commissions which fill interim vacancies on the highest courts. Twenty states utilize retention elections for judges who wish to serve on highest state courts beyond their initial term. (en) |
