1. Why are you running for Superior Court Judge?

Answer from Laura F. Priver:

I have been a Deputy District Attorney for over 19 years and am honored to have served the public in that capacity. I believe justice is the ultimate goal of our legal system. As a DDA, I have always kept justice in mind and have obtained results that both protect society and punish appropriately those who violate the law. However, I have come to understand that a judge who is experienced, knowledgeable, intellegent, diligent yet fair is in the most critical position to ensure a just resutlt for all parties. I can be that judge and would be honored to have the opportunity to do so.


2. What are the personal qualities which best equip you to serve as a judge?

Answer from Laura F. Priver:

I possess all the qualities that are critical to being a good judge. I know the law. I am intelligent and have the capacity and willingness to learn new areas of law if necessary. I am dedicated. I have proven I am both a talented trial attorney and a skilled administrator. I am a good listener. Perhaps most important, I have the necessary temperment to be a firm but fair judge.
