Eventually judges will be replaced by Rum Ready’s “proprietary AI”. I imagine Rum’s had many wet dreams about it.
The Current Method is Corrupt! This is Better than the Current Method!! The Best for ALL Judges to be Elected as are Probate Judges!!
The house members just voted on it to look good to their constituents at home. We all know the system is corrupt as hell. This is a step in the right direction but it is clear they knew it would die in the senate. ? We don’t need judges campaigning year long and then owing their donors. Our county has a Probate judge that is not even an attorney. Many counties in S.C. have corrupt Probate judges. This is not the answer for judge selection.
Your comment reminds me of a once long time SC magistrate judge who had absolutely no legal degrees or training.
He retired from the Magistrate bench, then was placed on another as a probate judge in Charleston County. Media always portrait him as some kind of Saint. However, the hidden truths had him pegged as ignorant. At times he acted without any jurisdiction whatsoever. Those who filed complaints against were subjected to vindictive retaliation by attorneys who played golf with him.
