Given the current budget crisis in Delaware, the possibility of a $20,000-a-year raise for Delaware’s Supreme Court justices, plus significant raises for many other leaders, rightfully caused concern.
According to the National Center For State Courts, over the last eight years, Delaware’s justices have fallen from being the fourth-highest-paid out of all the states, to the ninth-highest, placing them higher than 42 other states. This fall in ranking was, in part, caused by the lack of substantial pay raises over this period of time. To be fair, this was the same for all state employees.
