EDITOR:
My husband and I have been privileged to live in Alpine County since 1970, and have known Judge Edmund Moor and each of the judges who followed him on the bench. We hope Alpine's next judge will follow in the footsteps of this esteemed group, and will be as thorough, unbiased, and fair as these judges have been.
For this reason, we support Tom Kolpacoff in the coming judicial election. Mr. Kolpacoff impresses us as someone who will look at both sides of an issue and decide cases based on the law.
One important thing for voters to know is that a large percentage of the cases in Alpine County's court are criminal cases. However, our court handles civil matters, too. Therefore it is especially important that Mr. Kolpacoff brings extensive experience in both criminal and civil legal matters, because our judges must be prepared to handle both.
With his strong legal experience, we feel Mr. Kolpacoff will be good for our court and our community.
