Ind. Courts - Interviews today of 14 applicants to fill upcoming Tax Court Judge Vacancy

Interviews begin this morning at 9:00 a.m. and continue through the day. One applicant, Richard Hoffman, who was scheduled for the final interview, has withdrawn, meaning the interviews will end at about 3:30 p.m. Thereafter, the Judicial Nominating Commission will deliberate in executive session, selecting the semi-finalists -- just how many will not be known until the announcement, expected late this afternoon.

The Commission will hold a second round of interviews on October 27th, selecting three finalists' names to submit to Governor Mitch Daniels. The Governor will select Indiana's Tax Court Judge within a month thereafter.

The ILB will not be attending the initial interviews and reporting on them in real-time, as with the recent Supreme Court interviews. However, the ISBA camera will record all 14 interviews and the ILB has arranged to link to, and perhaps comment on, the videos as soon as they are available. The semi-finalists' interview videos will be posted first.

Here are links to the ILB "quick references" for the panels

Here is the timetable, with links to the applications:
