Vermont Statutes Title 4. Judiciary, § 1108. Judicial Bureau violations; jurisdiction of assistant judges

(a) Subject to the limits of this section and notwithstanding any provision of law to the contrary, an assistant judge sitting alone shall have the same jurisdiction, powers, and duties to hear and decide matters within the jurisdiction of the Judicial Bureau under section 1102 of this title as a hearing officer has under the provisions of this chapter.

(c) The Chief Superior Judge may assign or direct assignment of an assistant judge with the assistant judge’s consent to hear matters in the Judicial Bureau within the county in which the assistant judge presides or in a county other than the county in which the assistant judge presides if the assistant judge has elected to hear and decide such matters.
