Joint Asian Judicial Evaluations Committee

Ratings

 
 

"Created in July 2006, the Joint Asian Judicial Evaluations Committee (JAJEC) includes members from the Asian Bar Association of Washington, the Korean American Bar Association, the South Asian Bar Association, and the Vietnamese American Bar Association.

"The JAJEC was created in part to ensure that judicial candidates are aware of and consider the issues important to the Asian Specialty Bars. All of our ratings are available to the public to educate voters of those candidates who meet the qualifications to serve on the judiciary as defined by the Asian Specialty Bars.

"We do NOT endorse candidates for judicial office. Rather, we evaluate candidates by providing the public with our ratings. Candidates may be rated as follows: A candidate may be rated exceptionally well qualified (EWQ), well qualified (WQ), qualified (Q), or not qualified (NQ) based on various factors including his or her integrity, fairness, legal ability, and demonstrated commitment to equal justice."
