Judicial Philosophy (Max 250 words) | A Judge's touchstone should always be the Constitution. A judge should be impartial, consistent, fair, should apply the letter of the law, and should never legislate from the bench. A judge should also work hard to get opinions out quickly so that the parties know their legal rights as soon as possible. | ||
