The Judicial Nominating Committee has decided to extend the deadline. Please consider submitting your application, and do not hesitate to reach out to Tony Weiler (tony@sband.org) with any questions you may have.

The Judicial Nominating Committee received a letter from Governor Doug Burgum convening the Committee to screen applicants and submit a list of nominees to fill Judgeship No. 3 in the Northwest Judicial District as a result of the retirement of Judge Paul W. Jacobson.

The committee is now accepting applications from qualified attorneys interested in the district court appointment. The judgeship will be filled under N.D.C.C. Chapter 27-25. Application information is included below.
