Superior courts hear civil cases involving more than $25,000 and all felony cases.  Superior courts also hear misdemeanor and infraction appeals from the district court.  There are eight superior court judges in Mecklenburg County, each serving eight-year terms. Three of the seats are up for election in 2026, and all are unopposed. Voters only vote on one superior court district based on where they are registered. District 26C is in the northernmost part of the county.

Incumbent Republican George Bell is running for the N.C. Court of Appeals, Seat 2.  Attorney George Guise is running unopposed for this role.
