Stiegler No Longer in Contention for Judgeship

Updating you on a story we brought you previously...former State Representative Judy Stiegler says she is no longer in contention to fill retired Judge Stephen Tiktin's seat. Stiegler says she's disappointed but accepts the Governor's decision: "You know, it is what it is, and it's not that I haven't dealt with disappointments in my lifetime. I have and this is a disappointment because the bench is something that I; I think would make a good judge. You never know what the Governor and the Governor's people are looking for at any point in time and that's their prerogative. So I take it, I accept it and I’ll go on to the next chapter, whatever that might be."  Stiegler says she's still planning to continue working in the legal profession in some fashion. Another contender, Attorney Beth Bagley says she's also received notice that she is not still being considered for the judgeship.
