Almost Half of Judge Candidates Unqualified to Run, Says NY Bar

• The system is corrupt!  

• I can see how Judge Thompson was not approved by the Bar. This woman has an attitude that borders on contempt for the very same people that are of her race (black) I sat in her court room watching her and she thinks she is on a tv show going on and on with her lectures to these poor people and she is no better than they are. They showed more class than this Harriet Thompson. I think she forgot where she came from! She lacks humility. She also seems to side the with the attorneys even giving them advice on how to complete their filing to their advantage. It happened to us and we were surprised that she actually had the bad judgement to guide an attorney while we were not represented. I agree with the BAR I would not approve her either.

Someone should question her about it and see what she says.

• What were Mr. Lazio's qualifications for Supreme Court Justice?

• Recognition should be given that 5 of the candidates for judgeships previously were on a party ticket for statewide office and so their candidacy aside they do not have intentions of serving on the bench. Do such candidates actually submit themselves to the Bar Association's lengthy screening?
