The Constitution of the State of Montana charges the Supreme Court
with the ultimate responsibility for the efficient and effective
operation of the judicial system. The Constitution gives the
Supreme Court “general supervisory control over all other state
courts” and allows the Supreme Court to make rules governing
appellate procedure, practice and procedure for all other courts
and to regulate admission to the bar and conduct of attorneys.
To assist the court in fulfilling its administrative and
supervisory duties, the Supreme Court relies on presiding District
Court Judges, the Office of the Court Administrator, and the Clerk of
Supreme Court.
