Plain-language change summary

The updated version of Bill SR 101 adds a note indicating that it was offered on January 26, 2021, by Patron Edwards. It removes the specific nominations of two judges, Michael J. Bush and Martha P. Ketron, for the Twenty-ninth Judicial District, along with their starting terms. This change matters because it indicates a shift away from those particular appointments, potentially opening the door for new nominees or a change in the judicial selection process.
