A bill that would start the process of judicial redistricting will be heard in the House Civil Justice Subcommittee on Wednesday. Senate Bill 41 (HB 144)  would seat a task force of 13 members to review Tennessee's judicial districts and publish a proposed statewide judicial redistricting plan by Jan. 1, 2017. Members of the task force would include six appointed by the Senate Speaker, six by the Speaker of the House, and one appointed jointly. The bill would also establish a joint legislative committee on judicial redistricting to review the report and redistricting plan.
