Ind. Courts - "Website focuses on judges up for retention"
"Website focuses on judges up for retention" is the headline of this article in the October 31, 2006 Chesterton Tribune:
The Indiana State Bar Association urges the public to review a website focusing on the judicial retention questions that will appear on the Nov. 7 ballot.Indiana’s Supreme Court and appellate court judges stand for retention on the same ballot as candidates running for elected office. The judges up for retention this year are Supreme Court Justice Frank Sullivan Sr. and Court of Appeals judges James S. Kirsch, Terry A. Crone, Ezra H. Friedlander, Edward W. Najam Jr., and Patricia A. Riley.
The website address is indianadecisions.com/2006retentionballot.
The website contains background on the Indiana court system and how judges are selected; biographies on the candidates seeking retention; the results of the ISBA poll on whether the judges should be retained; information from the Secretary of State’s Office regarding the judicial retention question; questions for the appellate court judges; and other information.
The website was created by ISBA member and Indiana Law Blog author Marcia Oddi of Indianapolis.
