Campaign statements
Oshea said, if he is elected he would push for a unified family court, where each family would get one judge who would deal with various aspects of their cases, rather than having to face different judges, which is done now.[3]
He also said that he would stay in family court for the entire 10-year term, rather than use the seat as "training ground" for other judicial aspirations.[3]
