About the event
What message do we send the public about justice when we put a partisan label on it?
What does 'fair and impartial' mean to you, and how do partisan elections threaten it?
Who benefits most from making our courts partisan: the powerful or the average Montanan?
Is party affiliation meaningful information about a judge's temperament, wisdom, or fidelity to the law?
Panelists: Judge Elizabeth Best, Rylee Sommers-Flanagan, Esq., and Bill Bronson, Esq.
5:30pm: Doors open and No-host Bar
