Tom Wallitsch, Former LC Judge, Endorses Morganelli for Congress

Tom Wallitsch
Former Lehigh County Judge Thomas A. Wallitsch has endorsed Northampton County District Attorney John Morganelli for Congress. Wallitsch was a Lehigh County Court of Common Pleas Judge from 1991 to 2006. He served as Chair of the Appellate Court Procedural Rules Committee and served as Co-Chair of the Education Committee of the Pennsylvania Conference of Trial Judges for eight years. He is a frequent lecturer and author on issues relating to civil litigation including medical malpractice and the settlement of cases.

"I have known John for 35 years," said Wallitsch. "We practiced law together, and he appeared before me as a judge. He has advanced Democratic values his entire career and has been a leader in advancing women and minorities in the criminal justice system. He is a man of integrity and principle, and would be a highly respected representative for our district."

Morganelli said he was honored to have the support of "a highly skilled jurist and man of integrity."

    Hurry up and endorse John Morganelli, let him know you're his friend just in case your family member is charged with theft of service. Here's an example your relation works at a bank and takes their mortgage payments off the billing system. Then the bank does an audit and discovers they're not paying their mortgage, and presses charges. Your friend Morganelli uses Prosecutorial Discretion and the charges are dropped because you made the back payments.

You own views are appreciated, especially if they differ from mine. But remember, commenting is a privilege, not a right. I will delete personal attacks or off-topic remarks at my discretion. Comments that play into the tribalism that has consumed this nation will be declined. So will comments alleging voter fraud unless backed up by concrete evidence. If you attack someone personally, I expect you to identify yourself. I will delete criticisms of my comment policy, vulgarities, cut-and-paste jobs from other sources and any suggestion of violence towards anyone. I will also delete sweeping generalizations about mainstream parties or ideologies, i.e. identity politics. My decisions on these matters are made on a case by case basis, and may be affected by my mood that day, my access to the blog at the time the comment was made or other information that isn’t readily apparent.
