Christopher Brooks on Appellate Judicial Section

In this episode, Christopher T. Brooks, Professor of History at East Stroudsburg University, discusses his work on appellate judicial selection. He explains that state appellate judges are usually either elected or appointed with the advice of nominating committees. He argues that both methods are flawed, and that it would be better for judges to be appointed by elected nominating committees. Brooks is on LinkedIn.This episode was hosted by Brian L.
