Nominating Commission Seeks Applicants for Iowa Court of Appeals Posted 12 June 2008 The State Judicial Nominating Commission is accepting applications to fill the vacancy on the Iowa Court of Appeals that will occur when Court of Appeals Judge Van Zimmer retires September 4, 2008. The commission will meet on July 14, 2008, to select three nominees to submit to the Governor.  The vacancy shall be filled by appointment by the Governor from the list of nominees. Nominees must be residents of the state, licensed to practice law in Iowa, and must be of such age that they will be able to serve an initial and one regular term of office before reaching the age of 72. To be most favorably considered for balloting, a candidate for nomination must file a notice of intent to file an application with the secretary of the commission by June 30, 2008, and submit a completed questionnaire to the secretary of the commission and all commissioners.  The completed questionnaire must be filed with the secretary of the commission, or if mailed it must be postmarked, on or before July 3, 2008. Any candidate who was interviewed by the commission on June 2nd or 3rd who wants to be considered for this opening does not need to resubmit a completed questionnaire and related information, but must provide the secretary of the commission with written notice of their intent to apply on or before June 23, 2008. Any citizen may submit in writing to the secretary of the commission, or to any commissioner, the names of persons for consideration as a candidate for nomination and express views concerning such candidate.
