Handbook for Judicial Nominating Commissioners

The revised and updated 2nd edition of the Handbook for Judicial Nominating Commissioners leads commissioners step-by-step through the commission process – from getting organized, to establishing evaluative criteria, to publicizing the judicial vacancy, to investigating and screening applicants, to interviewing, to voting and submitting names to the appointing authority.  Two expanded chapters address specific commission ethics considerations and privacy and confidentiality concerns.
