District Court Dept 14

One said, “Alan has certainly pretty much disqualified himself over the last 10 years with some really indefensible positions that he's taken and certainly in interviews with the RJ that are now in print, he continues to take some really indefensible positions about society, about women, about people of color, it's about people who are gay.” Another: “(Talim) has shown some bad judgment as a district attorney in a lot of ways, and has been responsible for a lot of very hard overcharge and stacking situations, but she is competent …she's a very intelligent person, and probably will grow into the ropes. I don't see her going on any kind of power trips anytime soon. So with some hesitancy, a career prosecutor gets my vote.” Another: “I found (Talim) to be even handed, and I think that she's going to be contemplative, and she was going to listen to both sides on the bench. I think that as prosecutors who become judges go, I think she's going to be one of the better ones, and she's an obvious choice in this case.” Others agreed. Bottom line: Clear choice Talim
