Stipulation for Court Commissioner to Act as Temporary Judge for All Purposes

Orange County Superior Court · Locally Approved Forms

Verified current as of July 16, 2026

This form allows both sides in a court case to agree that a court commissioner (a judicial officer with less authority than a judge) can make all decisions in their case, just like a regular judge would. It would be used by people involved in a lawsuit who want a faster or more efficient resolution and are willing to have a commissioner handle their case instead of waiting for a judge.
