    I think it makes sense to do what it takes to make sure that trials can start quickly, and you aren’t waiting months or years for your trial to begin.

      I don’t know much about the legal system, but I have to assume a lot of that is because the courts are busy and there are only so many judges. That isn’t a job where I want them to lower the bar to allow more people in who wouldn’t normally be considered.

        Courts are only so big. So many clerks running things. I’m sure there’s more qualified candidates for judges than there are funding for those judges.
