On Thursday, Jan. 28, the Commission on Judicial Selection announced two vacancies in Minnesota’s Ninth Judicial District. The vacancies will occur upon the elevation of the Honorable Anne M. Rasmusson to the Court of Appeals and the retirement of the Honorable Jeffrey S. Remick. These seats will be chambered in Warren and Crookston.
The application process is now open for these vacancies. The commission is searching for fair, experienced, and civic-minded individuals to serve on the bench and offer their talents and services to Minnesota’s judicial system. Per statute, the commission will consider the following qualifications for judicial office: integrity, maturity, health (if job related), judicial temperament, legal knowledge, ability, experience, and community service. The commission is seeking applicants who reflect Minnesota’s full diversity.
