The Mohave County Board of Supervisors voted on January 6, 2025 to petition Governor Hobbs to add an eighth division to the Superior Court in Mohave County pursuant to Article VI, Section 10 of the Arizona Constitution and A.R.S. § 12-121. Governor Hobbs approved that request on March 6, and the new division became effective July 1.

Under Arizona’s Constitution, Superior Court judges in counties with a population of less than 250,000 people are elected by the voters. However, vacancies created by the establishment of a new division or by the retirement or resignation of a judge are filled by gubernatorial appointment until the next general election.
