21. APPOINTMENT OF SUPERIOR COURT JUDGE PRO TEMPORE In accordance with Arizona Revised Statutes § 12-141, approve the appointment of Superior Court Commissioner Erin Otis as Superior Court Judge Pro Tempore for the period commencing April 16, 2012 through June 30, 2012. In order to obtain greater flexibility in the use of Court Commissioners, the Superior Court customarily has all Court Commissioners appointed as Superior Court Judges Pro Tempore so they may, on occasion, hear contested matters. This serves the interest of judicial economy and promotes sound caseflow management. Superior Court Commissioner Erin Otis would serve as Pro Tempore without any additional compensation other than that to which entitled to as a Superior Court Commissioner. (C-80-12-010-2-00)
