14 apply for KS Appeals Court position
MAIN*blogger has learned that 14 people have applied for the new 13th position on the Kansas Court of Appeals. You may remember that this seat was funded by last year's legislature; the job begins January 1, 2008.
The Supreme Court nominating Commission will interview candidates and will submit 3 names to Governor Sebelius, who will make the appointment from their list.
Applicants include former State Rep. Ward Loyd, R-Garden City, Suzanne Carey McAllister of Lawrence, Steven J. Obermeier from Olathe, and Melissa Taylor Standridge from Overland Park.
The person who is selected will have to stand for retention in 2010.

What do we know about these applicants? Should we be sending notes to our Joco Commissioners in favor of a moderate?
The selection process happens through the Supreme Court nominating commission.
MAIN*blogger will keep an ear and eye on the process and let you know if there is any need to mobilize.
