Eighty-eight of the returned surveys contained comments on the judges. Council staff entered and analyzed the data from the surveys. Comments were entered separately. Table 1 shows the basis for evaluation of each judge. The comments from the court employee surveys will be distributed to Judicial Council members.
Comments are confidential.
This memorandum summarizes the findings from the survey, and will go to the Council and to the judges. The survey results appear in the following tables. Court employees used a five-point scale, with Excellent scored as five, and Unacceptable scored as one. The closer the employees scores were to five, the higher that judge's evaluation by the employees. The mean score and number of responses appear for each variable.
