The Central courthouse in downtown Fort Lauderdale hosted a Judicial Campaign Conduct Forum on Friday, May 11, 2018 for judicial candidates seeking contested seats. Approximately 40 people, including sitting judges, judicial candidates and members of the public, were in attendance. The forums are held every election year in order to help emphasize the importance of conducting campaigns in compliance with the myriad laws and rules governing judicial elections. Held across the state, the forums are sponsored by the Florida Supreme Court and the Florida Bar Board of Governors and supported by the state’s trial court chief judges and the court’s Judicial Ethics Advisory Committee.
