Personally, I think that a regular dropdown would be the most clear:
Role: | Acting Judge |
| Attorney |
I agree with the dropdown!
👍this could work, @dannysellers or @evankroske could probably make an evaluation of engineering lift here if we needed
@sneha-pai — i guess we've decided not to stitch these tasks into the existing "Your Queue" view? Wondering if we ever asked an eng to look into that.
I'm sure there are prefab toggle switch React components we could find that would make the overall engineering lift pretty minimal, but I don't know that a dropdown is any less clear, and would take slightly less time.
I'm not sure how complicated it would be to switch roles without reloading the page—we'd basically have to restart the site—but with reloading the page I don't think it'd be too difficult
@amprokop - re: not stitching them into the existing "Your Queue" view. I believe we all had this conversation about a role toggle together at the whiteboard in Hoth and that surfaced the toggle as the simplest option.
Shall we move forward with the dropdown option? @sneha-pai @dannysellers @evankroske
@laurjpeterson @amprokop @mkhandekar Regarding Alex's comment above re: stitching this toggle to the Queue components more closely: what if we added this role toggle to the top left or right area, floating above the queue container (especially if we're moving search to navigation)?
Thoughts?
I just want to make sure I'm understanding the different approaches clearly.
My read of Alex's comment:
i guess we've decided not to stitch these tasks into the existing "Your Queue" view?
... is to not show a universal toggle, rather, show all tasks in the table normally, and
@sneha-pai Yes! Moving the dropdown closer to the table so that it is more clear what that action will affect, might look like this:
during 10/31 BVA leadership/DS meeting, BVA leadership decided we should not focus on building functionality for acting judges because she will be reassessing whether AVLJs will still be in use come January
Anya's notes:
Currently if a user is both an acting and an attorney, the queue page defaults to attorney view. On judge assignment page, if assigned_to is both an acting judge and an attorney, we default to an attorney when creating a task.
A few things to think about: 1. When a user with both roles loads a queue page, do we display a role toggle? 2. When a judge assigns a case to a user with both roles, should we give a judge an option to choose which role (attorney or judge) to use or do we want to default to a role on the BE?
Do we need to rely on roles at all (technical part)?

LP's raw notes:
LP's todos:
The Board has appointed more acting judges. We haven't deprecated DAS yet (and aren't likely to do so in the next few months). Posting those acting judges here so we have them.
Note: another idea about acting judges - creating an organization, here https://github.com/department-of-veterans-affairs/caseflow/issues/10029. We may end up wanting to close this issue in favor of a more up to date one.
Closing this ticket because it's over a year old.
Acting judges can complete all their work for AMA cases. They're still working on legacy cases in VACOLS.
Some attorneys were previously acting judges. An acting judge is an attorney who had applied for the privileges to hear Veteran cases at a hearing and therefore decide/sign those decisions. They do not write the decisions for these cases. Instead, another attorney writes them. The frequency of acting judges has decreased over time.
These attorneys need a way to toggle between the Judge view of queue and Attorney view.
