Supreme Court decides that Stutsman County has greatest need for another judge

The North Dakota Supreme Court has opted to chamber a judge in Jamestown for the Southeast Judicial District who should be on board by the end of the year. The North Dakota Legislature in the last session authorized another judge for the district as well as one for the Northwest Judicial District. The Supreme Court looked at where a judge was most needed to handle the caseload in the 11-county district. It weighed the number of filings, population, travel time for other judges to hear cases and local services provided.

Sotomayor promises to stick to the law

Is Supreme Court Justice-designate Sonia Sotomayor going to have to eat her words and forget her past to win a seat on the high bench? That would apparently appease some of her right-wing critics, who are grasping at straws in their campaign to try to derail the Hispanic woman’s nomination — or, at least, try to rough her up a bit.

Opposing Sotomayor is the right’s thing to do

Frank Ricci is “just” a fireman, and not, like Supreme Court Justice nominee Sonia Sotomayor, a federal judge. He is “only” a white male, and not, like Sotomayor, a Latina. And while he works in New Haven, Conn., he certainly didn’t attend Yale Law School as Sotomayor did.
