How do you determine if you are truly qualified to join the venerable company of those who answer the call to judge from the bench-and how do you then move from an aspiration to a realized dream?
The Book of Judges is the comprehensive insider's guide to the inner workings of the judicial nomination and selection process. Curated by attorney and judicial nomination commissioner Jeff Goodman, this collection of essays from 66 judges offers a rare, behind-the-scenes perspective into each step of the journey to the bench. Whether you are an attorney considering a judicial career, a policymaker or legal professional interested in improving the judicial system, or simply a citizen curious about how judges are chosen, The Book of Judges demystifies one of the most consequential yet opaque aspects of our legal system, and serves as the essential guidebook for a new generation of leaders who mete out justice from the bench.
