Court managers definition
Court managers means high-level administrative staff who work in such close proximity to judges that their actions, decisions or conduct might be viewed as the official acts or positions of the judiciary. In the superior, municipal and justice courts, court managers include court administrators, chief probation officers, juvenile court directors, and any other similar staff designated by the clerk of the superior court, presiding judge, chief judge or chief justice of each court, but not the elected clerks of court themselves. In the appellate courts, court managers include clerks of the court, chief staff attorneys, the administrative director, deputy director, division directors and other staff designated by the chief justice or chief judges.
