Approach to the law

Cure was quoted on the "Democratic Women's Caucus":

Experience matters, and as any judge can tell you, that means not only broad and diverse legal experience, but practical experience as well. Our justice system, after all, is not just about laws: it’s about people. The judge who can bring to her legal experience an equal measure of experience working in the community with people of diverse backgrounds—this is the ideal judge.[6] - Elizabeth Ann Cure[7]
