The Indiana General Assembly approved legislation Wednesday giving the governor a bigger say over which judicial candidates are nominated to him for appointment to the Lake Superior Court.
House Bill 1453 would replace the nine-member Lake County Judicial Nominating Commission with a seven-member commission and eliminate the members selected by lawyers and judges working in Lake County.
The Lake County Bar Association is reaching out to Indiana senators trying to halt legislation that dramatically changes how Lake County judges are selected.
The legislation would eliminate the commission members currently selected by Lake County attorneys and statutory requirements that commission members reflect the diversity of Lake County's population.
