I-1 ii Part I Introduction Deliberately left blank Part I Introduction Alaska's Constitution established the Alaska Judicial Council and required it to "make reports and recommendations to the supreme court and to the legislature at intervals of not more than two years" (Article IV, Section 9). This twenty-third report to the legislature and the supreme court summarizes the Council's activities in 2005 and 2006 in judicial selection and evaluation, and in research. Appendices to the report describe the Council's membership (Appendix B), bylaws (Appendix C), judicial selection procedures (Appendix D), judicial nominations and appointments since statehood (Appendix E), retention election evaluation procedures and a 2006 retention vote analysis (Appendix F), a retention election history for judges currently serving on the bench (Appendix G), a list of major Council recommendations since statehood (Appendix H), and a list of the Council’s reports since statehood (Appendix I). A. Judicial Council Duties The Judicial Council has constitutional and statutory duties in three general areas. First, the Council screens applicants for judicial vacancies and nominates the most qualified applicants to the governor for appointment. The legislature also has assigned to the Council the responsibility of screening applicants for the head of the Public Defender Agency. Second, the Council by law must evaluate the performance of judges who are to appear on the ballot, and must make performance information and recommendations available to voters. The supreme court has asked the Council to conduct similar evaluations of retired judges sitting pro tem, and of masters and magistrates. Third, the Alaska Constitution directs the Judicial Council to conduct studies and make recommendations to improve the administration of justice in Alaska. The legislature has assigned the Council specific projects from time to time such as the collection of civil case data, and the evaluation of therapeutic courts. The Alaska Supreme Court and/or the Alaska Court System have requested the Council to conduct other projects such as the Council’s evaluation of disparities in Alaska’s felony process and its evaluation of changes in the processing of domestic violence cases. Appendix A gives constitutional and statutory references to all mandated Judicial Council functions. Page 1 Twenty-Third Report to the Legislature and Supreme Court Alaska Judicial Council 2005-2006 B. Council Membership Article IV, Section 8 of Alaska's Constitution establishes the membership of the Council as three non-attorney members appointed by the Governor, three attorney members appointed by the Board of Governors of the Alaska Bar Association, and the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of Alaska who serves, ex officio, as Chairperson. The Constitution provides that all appointments shall be made "with due consideration to area representation and without regard to political affiliation." A majority of both houses of the legislature must confirm the non-attorney appointments, while the Board of Governors of the Alaska Bar Association appoints the attorney members after conducting advisory elections among Bar members within local judicial districts. Members serve six-year staggered terms. Since the last report, two new members have joined the Council. Governor Murkowski appointed Christena Williams of Ketchikan to replace Gigi Pilcher as a non-attorney member. The Alaska Bar Association Board of Governors named James Cannon of Fairbanks to replace attorney Robert Groseclose. Appendix B lists all Council members since statehood. C. Organization and Administration of the Council The Judicial Council is governed by bylaws adopted in concurrence with the constitutional provision that the Council shall act ". according to rules which it adopts" (Article IV, Section 8). The Council revised its bylaws since its last report. The current bylaws are in Appendix C and on the Council’s website at www.ajc.state.ak.us. The legislature funds most Council activities from the general fund. The Council received funds in 2005 and 2006 from the Alaska Court System and the Alaska Department of Health and Social Services to carry out some of its projects. The Council also received National Institute of Justice funding through the University of Alaska Anchorage. The Judicial Council's staff currently includes the executive director, senior staff associate, project coordinator, fiscal officer, research analyst, selection and retention assistant, and executive secretary. Additional temporary staff work as needed. Page 2 Part II Judicial Selection and Evaluation Deliberately left blank Part II Judicial Selection and Evaluation 2005-2006 A. Judicial Selection 1.

The operative date for the beginning of all time periods for filing postopinion motions and petitions for certification is the ``officially released'' date appearing in the opinion. In no event will any such motions be accepted before the ``officially released'' date. All opinions are subject to modification and technical correction prior to official publication in the Connecti- cut Reports and Connecticut Appellate Reports. In the event of discrepancies between the electronic version of an opinion and the print version appearing in the Connecticut Law Journal and subsequently in the Con- necticut Reports or Connecticut Appellate Reports, the latest print version is to be considered authoritative. The syllabus and procedural history accompanying the opinion as it appears on the Commission on Official Legal Publications Electronic Bulletin Board Service and in the Connecticut Law Journal and bound volumes of official reports are copyrighted by the Secretary of the State, State of Connecticut, and may not be repro- duced and distributed without the express written per- mission of the Commission on Official Legal Publications, Judicial Branch, State of Connecticut. ****************************************************** STATE v. JENKINSÐFIRST DISSENT KATZ, J., dissenting. Both the fourth amendment to the United States constitution and article first, § 7, of the Connecticut constitution protect individuals against unreasonable searches and seizures. In this case, it is undisputed that the initial stop of the defendant, Chris- topher Jenkins, for improperly changing lanes was rea- sonable and, therefore, valid under both of these provisions.

  • Subsistence Hunting and Fishing in Alaska: Does Anilca’S Rural Subsistence Priority Really Conflict with the Alaska Constitution?
    MCGEE_CPCXNS.DOC 12/9/2010 3:38:15 PM SUBSISTENCE HUNTING AND FISHING IN ALASKA: DOES ANILCA’S RURAL SUBSISTENCE PRIORITY REALLY CONFLICT WITH THE ALASKA CONSTITUTION? JACK B. MCGEE* ABSTRACT All parties to the subsistence controversy in Alaska (the state and the federal government, sportsmen’s associations, outdoor organizations, and Native groups) have assumed that the Alaska National Interest Lands Conservation Act (ANILCA) grants residents of rural Alaska an exclusive right to engage in subsistence hunting and fishing on public lands. As a result, there appears to be an intractable contradiction between the “equal access” provisions of the Alaska Constitution and the subsistence provisions of ANILCA. This Article will question this widespread assumption. It will argue that while it is true that ANILCA creates a subsistence priority preference for rural Alaskans in the sense that at those times when fish or wildlife populations are threatened, rural Alaskans will be the very last group to have their right to subsistence hunting or fishing limited (i.e., ANILCA’s rural preference), the text of ANILCA does not support the claim that it creates a right to subsistence hunting and fishing on public lands that belongs exclusively to residents of rural Alaska. Consequently, there is no intractable contradiction between the Alaska Constitution and ANILCA. INTRODUCTION One of the most divisive and intractable political issues in Alaska is subsistence hunting and fishing. Although the Alaska National Interest Copyright © 2010 Jack B.
