Top Priorities if Elected |
- A judge should have only one priority, which is to ensure that justice occurs in every case presented before the judge no matter how large or small.
- The role of any judge is to decide the matters before him or her based only upon the evidence presented, the Constitution and the laws of this state.
- I have committed my life to the concept of "Equal Justice Under Law" and will continue to adhere to that belief if elected.
