Contacting Gov. Bob Riley


For the past three days we have profiled the attorneys being considered as a successor to Judge Mike Suttle. All three are graduates of the Cumberland School of Law and practice civil law in Florence. From their online bios and similar information available concerning these attorneys, we may infer that each is thoroughly qualified to serve in the capacity of Circuit Court Judge.

Therefore, I will leave it up to you, the reader, to select the applicant you consider the most suited to the position, a position he may hold for the next twenty years or more. Obviously, since there is to be no election at this time, our opinions may not make or break any one candidate; however, Gov. Bob Riley does listen to his constituents and will certainly take our recommendations into consideration.

One may reach the state's chief executive by mail at:

Gov. Bob Riley
State Capitol
600 Dexter Avenue
Montgomery, Alabama 36130

or by fax at:

334-353-0004

or e-mail at:

Remember, if we don't make our voices known, we have no basis for complaint. Gov. Riley's pick will become the incumbent and wield a large advantage as such in the next election. Good luck to all three candidates.


Tomorrow: Rating Judge Mike Jones
