Item Number: 102 Legislation Number (B: Bill, R: Resolution): R46-82
Author:   Logan Frick   Second:  Steve Scifo
Synopsis: Judicial Board Appointment
Date of Presentation: 3-29-2011
 

 Whereas, two seats on the ASUCI Judicial Board remain vacant since the resignation of Justice Komeili,

 Whereas, judicial propriety calls for the appointment of new justices to fill the Judicial Board with all possible haste so as to allow proper training prior to upcoming ASUCI elections,

Whereas, the ASUCI Constitution lays out specific deadlines for the nomination and confirmation of new justices which have hitherto not been met by the Executive Cabinet,

Whereas, the ASUCI Constitution in Article VI, Section C, Clause 3 states: "In the event that the Executive Cabinet fails to submit a nomination(s) to the Legislative Council within two (2) weeks of the occurrence of a vacancy, nominations may be made by any ASUCI elected representative,"

Whereas, after reviewing the submitted applications and interviewing the applicant, Logan Frick finds Abdullah Siddiqui exceptionally qualified to serve on the Judicial Board,

Whereas, Logan Frick, as an ASUCI elected representative, nominates Abdullah Siddiqui for a seat on the Judicial Board,

Let it therefore be resolved that Abdullah Siddiqui be appointed to a seat on the Judicial Board until the beginning of Spring Quarter in 2012-2013 academic year.
