How long does a circuit court judge have to make a decision in a case? Supreme Court Rule 70.36 dictates that a circuit court judge shall decide each matter submitted for decision within 90 days of the date on which the matter is submitted to the judge in final form. If a decision can not be made within 90 days, the judge shall certify this in the record of the matter and notify the chief judge of the judicial administrative district.
Critical care residents ranked number one in salary ($62,000) in 2015, earning more than their internal medicine and family medicine colleagues, who earned the least ($53,000). Their rankings remain unchanged from 2014.
(Some medical specialties require additional years of fellowship training in addition to the three to five years of residency training.) During residency training, residents are usually paid about $40,000 to $50,000 per year to help pay the bills. They are paid a minimal salary because medical residents are not fully licensed to practice medicine, and therefore residents do not independently bring in any revenue for a medical facility.
