Photo 1: A judicial candidate forum featuring the August primary candidates for Oakland County 46th District Court was conducted Monday, July 18, at the Southfield Public Library.  Taking part in the forum were candidates (seated, left to right) Oakland County 46th District Court Judge Cynthia Arvant, Dorothy Dean, and Kameshia Gant; along with (back row, left to right) Devlin Scarber, Marc Herschfus, and Eman Jajonie-Daman.  The forum is the result of a partnership—now in its sixth judicial cycle—among the Oakland County Bar Association (OCBA), the League of Women Voters-Oakland Area, and the Detroit Free Press that aims to sponsor judicial candidate forums in all contested judicial races in Oakland County.

Badgley Attorney At Law and Detroit Free Press columnist Brian Dickerson; along with (standing, left to right) Mike Schloff of Michael D. Schloff PLLC; Western Michigan University Cooley Law School Associate Dean Joan Vestrand; Gerald Gleeson of Miller, Canfield, Paddock, & Stone PLC; and Jerry Burden of the League of Women Voters-Oakland Area.  The forum was open to the public and was video recorded so that it may be aired on local cable channels. As soon as the recording is available, it is loaded on the OCBA’ YouTube page at http://bit.ly/OCBAYouTube.  Additionally, all candidates have been asked to complete a Judicial Candidate Questionnaire. The completed questionnaires are available on the OCBA website at www.ocba.org/judicial-candidate-forum/.
