- No one will work harder to make sure that every party receives justice in every decision by the courts within the Fifth District.
- It must be a top priority in our courts that decisions are made with an eye toward the concrete impact on people's lives.
- It's time for a Ball on your court -- a fair, hard-working, caring, thoughtful judge who knows that every case is important.
There was a man who bought a horse that had been trained to go when the rider said "Praise the Lord!" and stop when the rider said "Amen!" The man paid for the horse and was riding home when he realized that he had forgotten how to get the horse to stop. The horse kept going and going and soon it was approaching a high cliff, which fell far down to the valley below. Panicking, the man kept racking his brain trying to remember what he had to say to get the horse to stop. Finally, at the very last instant before they went flying over the cliff, he remembered what he had to say to get the horse to stop and shouted, "Amen!" The horse stopped immediately just before the edge of the cliff. Immensely relieved and grateful that his life had been spared, the man then called out, "Praise the Lord!"
