Gov. Tim Walz announced a vacancy on the Minnesota Court of Appeals that will occur upon the retirement of the Hon. James B. Florey on April 1. This seat is designated for Minnesota’s Eighth Congressional District.
Walz has asked a merit selection panel to solicit applicants, review candidates, and recommend finalists for appointment. The panel is searching for fair, experienced and civic-minded individuals to serve on the bench and offer talents and services to Minnesota’s judicial system.
The following qualities will be considered for judicial office: integrity, maturity, health (if job related), judicial temperament, legal knowledge, ability, experience and community service. Individuals wishing to apply may request an application by contacting Judicial.Selection@state.mn.us. Applicants must have resided in the Eighth Congressional District for at least one year to be eligible for appointment to this seat. Application materials are due by 4 p.m., Tuesday, Feb. 22 and should be addressed to Gov. Walz.
