Ind. Law - More from the new issue of the Indiana Lawyer
My issue of the Indiana Lawyer arrived in the mail this afternoon. Two items (not available online to nonsubscribers) caught my eye.
On. page 1, a story by Abigail Johnson titled "Judicial system tweaking: Indiana's appellate judge selection, retention system may still face scrutiny." It begins with an interview with Rep. Ralph Foley, R-Martinsville, who introduced a bill (HB 1419) in the just concluded session in an effort to change the way Indiana appellate judges are selected and retained.
Recommended reading, in my view, to go along with this week's Indiana Lawyer story, would be two articles I have authored recently that have been published in Res Gestae.
- "Analysis of another effort to alter the Indiana judicial selection and retention process," 49 Res Gestae 7 (Mar. 2006), pp. 32-38. [The focus of this article is HB 1419.]
- "Voting to Retain or Reject Indiana Judges and Justices," 49 Res Gestae 3 (Oct. 2005), pp. 21-23.
On p. 8, a story by Ron Browning titled "RSS does the searching for you." Among those quoted are local lawyers Stephen Terrell and myself.
