Pall letter: Elect Judge Gutierrez
On May 17, the most worthy candidate to take Idaho Supreme Court Justice Jim Jones’ seat is Court of Appeals Judge Sergio Gutierrez. “Judge G” is one of 13 children, born into poverty and dysfunction, an immigrant, a former field worker who has known hunger and homelessness.
Through scholarships, he went to college, then law school. After private practice, he was appointed district judge by Cecil Andrus and later Court of Appeals judge by Dirk Kempthorne.
Judge G has 23 years of judicial independence, integrity and achievement, bringing together people to resolve problems.
Experience matters. Elect Judge G on May 17.
