The Arizona Court of Appeals Division One released the amended panel assignments for January 30, 2023 through June 30, 2023.

The judges on Division One of the Arizona Court of Appeals sit together on assigned three-judge panels—called “Departments”—for four-month intervals.  The Court has released a new organizational order assigning the panels for January 30, 2023 through June 30, 2023.
