Minot Judge Among Three Named to Fill ND Supreme Court Vacancy

North Central District Judge Stacey Louser’s name was put forward by a panel offering Governor Burgum three candidates for a soon-to-be-vacant ND Supreme Court seat. The open seat was created by the retirement of Chief Justice Gerald VandeWalle. VandeWalle is retiring after more than four decades on the court and 27 years as Chief Justice.

Governor Burgum has the next 30 days to select from those recommended, convene a new panel, or call for a special election. Get the full story from Inforum.
