Confirmation Hearing: Ebowed for Chief Justice (Confirmed)

[Ebowed]

Thank you Senator.  My self-defined role as Associate Justice has been to find common ground among my colleagues in the hope of reaching decisions that generate a solid consensus.  I formulate decisions by interpreting arguments in light of our statute and the constitution, as any judge would, and though I have had few opportunities in the last year to demonstrate my ability to utilize my knowledge of these laws in an impartial manner, I feel that all of my work on the Court so far does fit this scope.  (In the interests of full disclosure, it might be worth noting that one trial over which I presided was deemed unfair by the person I ruled against, though this was part of a pattern of declarations of persecution on behalf of that particular poster, if I may speculate.)

If confirmed as Chief Justice, I would hope to deliberate over our legal proceedings with the dignity afforded to the position by my predecessors, including Chief Justice Sam Spade, whose impeccable understanding of Atlasian law helped him to establish a decorum of such professionalism that I would seek only to continue.  A court run by yours truly promises decisions that are coherent and adequately rationalized, and operations that are as transparent as is feasible.
