- Title
TO HAVE OR NOT TO HAVE--CONFLICTS OF INTEREST AND FINANCIAL PLANNING FOR JUDGES.
- Authors
WHITE III, THOMAS R.
- Abstract
The article determines the elements that make ownership of an investment into a conflict of interest and describes the planning techniques for dealing with the elements. Accumulating personal wealth, some judges have invested in several ways. It is assumed that they should not be asked to forego investment in stocks and securities since it would be counterproductive. Objections may arise if an investment owned by a judge is associated to the litigants in a case where the judge is directly and specifically involved. To deal with conflicts of interest, the basic approaches include the determination of whether a judge should himself from a pending case and the separation of a judge from his investments.
