Denied
|
Description |
DISP-DENIED ~ FSC-OPINION: Consistent with our decision in Thompson, we hold that the constitutional residency requirement for judges attaches at the time of appointment-not at the time of nomination. Therefore, the respondent judicial nominating commissions did not exceed their constitutional authority by nominating nonresident candidates. We do not reach the merits of the petitioners' procedural-rule-based challenge to the disputed nominations, because alleged noncompliance with the nominating commissions' rules of procedure is not the proper subject of a quo warranto proceeding. The petitions are denied. It is so ordered.
