Reading This Data

Judicial Performance Commission results indicate how JPR Commissioners voted, whether a judge “MEETS” Judicial Performance Standards based on survey information as well as all other information submitted by the public or the judge. Judicial Performance Surveys percentages show results of surveys completed by respondents based on the averaged results of the survey respondents who rated the judge “satisfactory” or better in combined Judicial Performance Standards categories.

Judicial Performance Standards include:

• Legal Ability: Decides cases based on applicable law, demonstrating competent legal analysis.

• Communication Skills: Issues prompt and understandable rulings and directions.

• Judicial Temperament: Dignified, courteous, and patient.
