WBA will accept applications for consideration for endorsement for DC Superior Court through Friday, October 8, 2010 (posted 9.1.10).
The WBA’s principal goal in endorsing candidates for judgeships is to ensure the appointment of qualified judges to both local and federal courts in the District of Columbia. Consistent with that goal, we also seek to increase the number of women occupying judgeships in the District of Columbia and federal courts. We endorse candidates who have demonstrated a commitment to equality of all litigants before the courts and who have been responsive to women’s needs and concerns.
The WBA’s principal goal in endorsing candidates for executive positions in the District of Columbia and federal governments and in bar associations is to increase the number of qualified women in those positions. We seek to endorse candidates who have demonstrated a commitment to promoting women’s advancement and opportunities and to responding to women’s needs and concerns.
Please note that candidates should provide the WBA with at least thirty (30) days notice for completion of the endorsement process.
