The state Commission on Judicial Conduct received and processed the third-highest number of complaints against the state’s judges in more than four decades, while its funding remained mostly stagnant from previous years, the panel said in its annual report Monday.

The commission issued 19 public decisions that either removed a judge from office, publicly sanctioned them, or announced their resignation in 2018. Those were the result of less than 1 percent of the 2,000 complaints received and processed by the panel during that time.
