I hereby declare the confirmation period for Franzl as Superior Court Judge open.  Now does anyone have any questions for the nominee?

Well, there should at least be one question, so here's what I'd like to know. ;)

Why do you think you are qualified for the job of Superior Judge?

Sorry, didn't see this until now. I think my qualifications largely speak for themselves. As a former assemblyman, senator, secretary of forum affairs and AG, I know this game extremely well and have experience with Atlasian law, having also been active as a private lawyer in many cases before the Supreme Court.

And I think (and hope) that I have a good sense of objectivity and that I'm able to apply the law as written without any party loyalties being factored in. (Not that I have a party at present (or even know what parties exist these days)).

How is his judicial philosophy overall?  I probably would support him if he had a conservative or moderate philosophy.  I personally would be more moderate and make rulings based on individual cases, but this is about him,  not me...

What are your plans concerning the long ago Court case concerning abortion that never actually had a decision by the SC?

My plans? To review it and rule on it. I don't think it would be appropriate to discuss the details of a particular case in the context of this procedure.

I was not asking that, sorry for miscommunication. I was asking for what your response has entailed. Thank you

I think it is probably about time.  Voting will now begin.  The question is as to whether Franzl shall be confirmed as Mideast Superior Judge:

Aye

Sorry I had to go to Baltimore for my training for my new job and was without internet.  With 2 votes for and one member not voting, Franzl is declared duly confirmed.
