    A question, Wizard: (none / 0) (#5)
    by Kevin Rex Heine on Sat Aug 18, 2012 at 10:50:14 AM EST
    You have, in the space of two election cycles, selected a grand total of two cases from Judge Markey's nearly 18-year tenure on the Appeals bench.  (She was originally elected in 1994 and her current term expires January 1, 2015, which puts her somewhere between sixth and ninth in seniority.)

    Out of the 28 judges on the Michigan Court Of Appeals bench, I'm told that Westlaw Review ranks Judge Markey as the third-strictest rule-of-law judge on that bench; not perfect, but not bad either.  (I'm still tracking down paper-trail proof of this, so feel free to not take my word on it.)

    Here's my question:  As a percentage of Judge Markey's caseload while on the COA bench, how often has she has gone "off the reservation" with regard to rule-of-law decisions?

    I'm curious as to your answer.
