<br /> <br /> <br />March 21, 2022 <br />North Dakota Supreme Court 600 East Boulevard Avenue Bismarck, ND 58505-0530 RE: Vacancy in Judgeship No. 2, South East Judicial District – Supreme Court <br />Nos. 20220082 Dear Clerk: On March 10, 2022 it was announced that the Honorable Mark T. Blumer would not seek reelection to the Judgeship No. 2 position, with chambers in Valley City, ND, South East Judicial District. The North Dakota Supreme Court indicates it will accept comments regarding the upcoming vacancy until March 25, 2022. The Cass County Commission understands the Judges of the East Central <br />Judicial District have requested that the Supreme Court enter its order transferring the present Judgeship No. 2, with chambers in Valley City, North Dakota, SEJD, to the ECJD, as Judgeship No. 10 with chambers in Fargo, <br />North Dakota, ECJD. The Judges of the ECDJ have made a compelling argument supporting their <br />request to transfer the vacant judgeship from the SEJD to the ECJD. The Cass County Board of Commissioners fully supports the request to transfer Judgeship No. 2 with Chambers in Valley City, South East Judicial District to the ECJD, as Judgeship No. 10 with chambers in Fargo, ND, ECJD. Based on the information presented, the Cass County Board of Commissioners believes this is the most appropriate allocation of resources.
