Can a member of the public contact the commission or an individual member to offer comments about an applicant?
Citizens familiar with an applicant are encouraged to share their comments with the commission via this website, or by sending an e-mail to jnc@courts.az.gov or a written comment to the commission in care of the Human Resources Department, Administrative Office of the Courts, 1501 West Washington Street, Suite 227, Phoenix, AZ, 85007. The nominating process operates best when a full range of information is available to commission members. Members spend significant time contacting people in the community, lawyers and judges to discuss an applicants qualifications. The commissions also welcome unsolicited comments. The commission rules do not allow members to accept anonymous comments, but members can assure confidentiality in those limited cases when it is appropriate, such as when the comment is about a supervisor or a colleague.
