District Courts of Iowa
There are at the present
time sixty-nine judges of the district court of the state of Iowa. The state is
divided into 21 judicial districts and each district is entitled to from one to
six judges, the number being fixed by statute. The judges are elected for terms
of four years and receive an annual salary of $4,000; also actual and necessary
hotel and living expenses not to exceed $3.00 per day when away from home, and
transportation expenses. Each judge appoints a shorthand reporter, who receives
$10 per day for each day's attendance upon said court, and in case the per diem
does not equal $2,400, then the county or counties composing the district make
up the deficiency in proportion to the number of days of court held in such
county or counties.
