JUDGE POS. NO. 01, 4 YR TERM /Exp.:06

Barbara Linde /NP /

It has been my privilege to serve as Judge since my election in 1994. I feel both honored and awed by the responsibility entrusted to me as Judge, and I take this position of trust and authority very seriously. I have earned a reputation for excellence over the past 8 years, as reflected in lawyers groups’ ratings, appellate reviews of individual cases, and numerous letters from members of the public who have taken the time to share with me positive feedback about my work.

In my next term I will continue to work to make justice a reality in every case.

These next four years will be very challenging for the District Court. Severe budget cuts require the Court to work smarter to become more efficient, while still serving justice. I’ve been appointed to a leadership role to guide the Court through a difficult but necessary process of reorganization to meet these challenges countywide. I feel honored to have been asked to serve the Court in this way. Three years ago I led the Court’s creation and implementation of a specialized Domestic Violence Court. I look forward to working to preserve fairness and justice in our Courts.
