The District Court System has undergone profound change not only as a result of increased work load but also the mandate of legal requirements. I believe the citizens of King County can be proud of the manner in which the District Court Judiciary has responded. We have adopted computerized docketing of court records; a Judicial Information System providing quick access to necessary data. We have restructured our County in Judicial Districting to accommodate necessary transfer of work load to Divisions within the county. I have been a Judge in the District Court for 24 years and an attorney for 34 years. During my time on the bench I have participated in numerous training programs; been invited as a group leader for National Judicial College; trial Judge for the National Institute for Trial Advocacy and University of Washington Moot Court Program; as well as serving on the Executive Committee of the King County District Court Judges Association. I look forward to continuing to serve the people of this County with the idea that Judges should always be seeking to better serve the needs of the community while still protecting the rights of the individual.
