To the editor,
It is my pleasure to endorse Scott Marinella for the position of Superior Court Judge in Asotin, Columbia and Garfield Counties. I have known Scott and his wife Sue for forty years. I know of and can attest to Scott’s integrity, honesty and abilities as a lawyer and a judge. He is fair-minded and listens to others. He will follow the law and make his decisions within it.
Scott, served as a board member and later as president of our state’s District and Municipal Judges Association. He is a proven leader of his constituents. Scott and I worked on several committees during my tenure as Chief Justice of the Washington Supreme Court. He was always prepared, asked insightful questions and listened to others’ input. These are essential qualities to serve and succeed as a Superior Court Judge.
Scott also volunteered to assist and do the extra work needed in your superior court circuit when the prior Judge was removed from the bench.
Scott’s experience as a lawyer and judge and his honesty and integrity as a person puts him in a excellent position to be an effective Superior Court judge now. He will not have to learn on the job. I urge you to elect him as your next Superior Court Judge.
Mary E. Fairhurst
Former Chief Justice
Washington Supreme Court
Olympia, Wash.
