The Philadelphia Bar Association announced the final results of the Association’s ratings of the qualifications of candidates for the Philadelphia Court of Common Pleas and candidates for Philadelphia Municipal Court in the May 19 primary election. The investigation was conducted by the Association’s Commission on Judicial Selection and Retention.

According to PBA, the ratings by the 30-member Judicial Commission follow extensive study and investigation by the commission’s own 140-member investigative division, which includes 30 non-lawyer members. 

Candidates who attained a “Recommended” rating satisfied a cumulative review of criteria including qualifications such as legal ability, experience, integrity, temperament, community involvement and judgment. On the other hand, candidates found “Highly Recommended” are described by the organization as extraordinary individuals who, in addition to meeting the “Recommended” criteria, are preeminent in the profession, exceptionally skilled in the law, possess a reputation for the utmost integrity and significantly will enhance or have enhanced the quality of the judiciary.
