The North Carolina Association of Defense Attorneys (“NCADA”) will hold a Judicial Candidates' Forum on Friday, June 12, 2020 from 10:00 a.m. to 11:45 a.m. via Zoom. The Forum will feature judicial candidates running in statewide elections for seats on the North Carolina Supreme Court and the North Carolina Court of Appeals. The appellate races are statewide races that impact all citizens of North Carolina.
Sixteen candidates seek election for eight open appellate level judicial seats - three seats on the North Carolina Supreme Court and five seats on the North Carolina Court of Appeals. A special appellate candidates publication providing information about each candidate may be found here.
This year's Judicial Candidates' Forum will be held virtually via Zoom closing out the 43rd Annual Meeting.
The Forum gives members of the public and the bar a rare opportunity to learn about the candidates who wish to serve the state at the appellate court level. Each candidate will have the opportunity to answer a question germane to the members of the civil defense trial bar and to briefly discuss his or her qualifications for the position.
The NCADA is a statewide association of lawyers defending the interests of individuals and businesses in North Carolina. For more information about the NCADA or the Judicial Candidates' Forum, please contact the Association office at 919-239-4463 or lynettepitt@ncada.org.
