Joint Committee on the Judiciary

The Joint Committee on the Judiciary is a legislative body, typically found in state governments, that combines members from both houses (like the Senate and House of Representatives) to discuss and oversee legal matters. Its main responsibilities include reviewing proposed laws related to the judicial system, evaluating the effectiveness of courts, and addressing issues like criminal justice and legal reforms. By working together, the committee aims to create fair and efficient legal processes and ensure that the judiciary operates effectively within the state’s legal framework.
