Tennessee judges are among the better paid in the country, according to a new Survey of Judicial Salaries published by the National Center on State Courts. The survey found that salaries of Tennessee Supreme Court justices ranked 12th in the nation, while those for intermediate appellate courts and general jurisdiction courts ranked ninth. The survey also includes data on state-by-state differences in defined benefit retirement programs, retirement ages and employment benefits for judges.
