A MOTION making an appointment to fill a judicial vacancy in the west division of King County district court.
Those opposed. Nay, those are the two names. Councilmember, would you now put a motion for the candidates for the West Division? And before you start, because there are two positions here we were we'll have more than two names coming forward. So with that, please make your motion. Okay. Miss Jones, do we have to delineate between the two positions, or can I just put forth five people for those two positions? I think you need to wait. Let's just put it together and then we can figure that out later. All right, I I'm going to go by what our chair said, and the five names indicate that they are being considered for filling to empty seats in our west division of the King County District Court. Therefore, I move that the following candidates be designated as our final candidates to be interviewed for two positions that are now vacant and the West Division of the King County District Court. The five names are as follows. These are Pat, Love, Sadie, Mary Lynch, Andrew Simmons, Samir Singh, Le and Greg Hara Hira Kala. Thank you. The motion is before us. Nice job. All those in favor of the five names put forward for the Seattle district. Please say i. I. Those opposed they. Their names are before us. So I want to thank all 13 of the original candidates for participating in the first phase of the process. Our county is very fortunate to have so many qualified individuals, many serving already as pro terms and who are willing to continue to serve their communities as district court judges. Those who were not chosen to be interviewed can continue to develop their judicial skills and experience. And I am sure that we will see you again at other vacancies in the court. Madam Chair, I want to mention to the public that they are also all still qualified to run for these positions. Once they are advertised the following week. That is correct. They may still be able to do that. And then after our decisions, they'll know who they are running against and in which position so they can make that choice should they choose to do so that maybe they'll think we did a fabulous job. I think that is all of the business before this committee. Is there anything else, Mr. Wagner, that we needed to bring up? No, ma'am. All right. With that, this meeting is adjourned.
