Judge Panella To Preside Over Pennsylvania Superior Court

Jack Panella is a well-regarded former Northampton County jurist who served as Northampton County Solicitor under former Executive Gerald E. "Jerry" Seyfied. He now is the President Judge of the Pennsylvania Superior Court.

The Superior Court, easily the state's busiest court, handled 8,019 cases in 2017. It is an intermediate appeals court, hearing appeals from the county courts. It also entertains wiretap applications.

I will be contacting Judge Panella for more details soon.

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.
