DISTINGUISHING CHARACTERISTICS:

This is the first in a series of two judicial-related job classifications within the Administrative Support job family. This classification works directly under Criminal or Civil judges. This classification is distinguished from the Judicial Aide Specialist and Court Operations Officer in that incumbents do not work directly in the courtroom and they typically have less experience, more administrative duties, less direct responsibility for case management and act more as a liaison than an advisor or representative for a judge. Sensitivity to detail and confidentiality.
