If ths isn't a conflict of interest, I don't know what is........

I read the article, and, to be fair, most of those judges were in situations where they didn't even realize they had a conflict, and in most cases, the amount they might have profited was very minimal. The problem comes from owning stocks. A judge might have a few thousand dollars in a certain company, and then has a case that in some way affects that company, and he doesn't even realize it.
It's careless, and it shouldn't happen, but It's easily fixed if the judges would put their stock investments into index funds or mutual funds, which would be exempt from the conflict rules. |
