One attorney referred to the Cuyahoga County bench as "so many who do so little." But rest assured: According to the lawyers we asked, most of you suck quite adequately. There were a lot of close races, and not everyone can be a winner. We'd also like to thank the judges whose names won't be mentioned tonight. Thanks to your willingness to vote for anyone whose name sounds like it was lifted from an Irish bar, we've got more guaranteed joke material than the complete Friends box set, spiced up with consequences that can last a lifetime. First of all, let's hear it for the voters of Cuyahoga County. Lucky for us, lawyers are as sleazy as we are and dished the dirt anyway.īefore we begin, we'd like to take a moment to thank those who made this evening's gala possible. " Scene magazine is asking lawyers to characterize judges, officers of the court we are duty bound to respect," OSBA President Keith Ashmus wrote his fellow barristers back then. The Ohio State Bar Association even got involved back then, warning attorneys against participating in our little stunt.

Apparently, it's not considered professional to call a judge a "brain-dead political hack," to refer to judges as "morons," or to joke about attempts on their lives - even if those attempts were really funny. When Scene first conducted this survey, it created quite a stir. We surveyed more than 300 attorneys to get their honest opinions on the judges - which, around here, is sort of like asking inmates to rate the jail kitchen's instant mashed potatoes. Welcome, ladies and gents, to the second official Cuyahoga County Court's People's Choice Awards, where Common Pleas judges are the stars of the show, and lawyers cast the ballots.
