The Fort Wayne News-Sentinel reports that the state bar members vote "yes," in this editorial brief today:
The lawyers’ verdict is inThere is more about Judge Sharpnack in this October 16th entry.When you examine this year’s general-election ballot, you’ll see a yes-or-no vote on retaining Judge John T. Sharpnack of the Indiana Court of Appeals. Now those among us most likely to know what kind of job he’s done have spoken: Keep him, they say.
The Indiana State Bar Association sent surveys to all its in-state members, asking about Sharpnack, among other questions. Of those who returned surveys, 90 percent said he ought to be retained.
Note: One way to look at some of the opinions Judge Sharpnack has written in 2004 would be to put the following, in quotes, in the search box in the right-hand column: "Sharpnack, Judge". That should produce links to the opinions Judge Sharpnack has written that have been reported here. Simply entering "Sharpnack" (without quotes) should produce links to most of those in which he has participated this year.
