Well, step right up. Judge Barry S. Seltzer is retiring on January 3, 2020, opening up a slot in Ft. Lauderdale.
Chief Judge K. Michael Moore has selected Jon Sale to lead the Magistrate Selection Committee. That Committee will recommend 5 applicants to the District Court for the final selection.
Although this has not been made public yet, in the near future, the application will be available on the court website and then forward it to FLSD_MagistrateJudgeRecruitment@flsd.uscourts.gov
Good luck all.

Real question is what happens to the kids admitted to college in the scandal? Do they get to remain?

ReplyDeleteSeven and a half? We're getting there. We're getting there!
ReplyDeleteSorry to hear about Barry's retirement. He was always a gentleman and reasonable on bond hearings to the defendants.
ReplyDeleteI echo that about Seltzer. He was a real pro and great courtroom demeanor and very thoughtful and clients always felt he listened to their lawyers and gave them a fair hearing. He will be a tough act to follow.
