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.
