Judicial service

The Governor of North Dakota Jack Dalrymple appointed Jensen as a state judge in November 2013, serving in the Northeast Central Judicial District, which covers Grand Forks and Nelson counties. Jensen served as presiding judge in 2015-2017. He was re-elected unopposed to a new six-year term in 2016.

In April 2017, North Dakota Supreme Court justice Carol Ronning Kapsner announced that she would retire from the court, effective from July 31, 2017. A judicial nominating commission provided the Governor of North Dakota Doug Burgum with three names of possible replacements for the vacancy: Jensen, and two other state judges, James Hill and Robin Schmidt. Governor Burgum announced that he had selected Jensen to replace Kapnser on July 12.

Jensen was sworn in as a justice of the North Dakota Supreme Court on August 15, 2017. His current term on the court expires on December 31, 2020, and he is eligible to run for re-election to a new ten-year term.
