Letter: Meek the best fit for county’s Superior II judge

From: Larry Hilkene

Columbus

Joe Meek is the only real choice for Judge of Superior Court II. He has over a decade of experience as a judge, presiding over every kind of case heard in Superior II. Meek has administered court staff over that period as well. Administration of an office requires special skills and experience also.

The other candidates do not have these experiences. Meek also practiced law in this community prior to serving on the bench as Magistrate of Superior II.

Speak with parties who appear in Meek’s court and they will tell you that he follows the law. I’ve known him for over 35 years, and he is a man of integrity with a genuine commitment to the law.

He is a leader in the community — involved in local athletics, a leader in his church and a leader in local government. For me, I want a judge who knows and follows the law, has real experience and integrity. If you want this also, the choice is clear: Meek is the only candidate for Judge of Superior Court II.
