HelptheJECEvaluateJudicialCandidates The Judicial Evaluation Committee is looking for investigators to assist with evaluating candidates for judge in the Circuit Court of Cook County. After a brief training session, investigators are given candidate questionnaires and assist the Committee in contacting references and compiling an investigative report on the assigned judicial candidate. If the matter goes to a hearing, investigators can attend the hearing, question the can f didate, and vote on whether they should be recommended. The only requirement is that investigators must have been in practice for two years. The position pro f vides the opportunity to speak to lead f ing attorneys and judges around the Chicago area and is an important public service. To volunteer as an investiga f tor or if you have any questions, contact Angie Cruz at acruz@chicagobar.org.
