Highly Qualified
by Judicial Panel
An independent screening commission in Rochester, New York has determined Keith Caughlin is a "highly qualified" candidate for Watertown City Court. The 15 member screening panel, known as the Independent Judicial Election Qualification Commission (IJEQC) is made up of judges, lawyers and non-lawyers appointed pursuant to regulation and considers an applicant’s 10 year professional history, references and personal interview to determine one of three ratings: unqualified, qualified or highly qualified for judicial office. The Commission evaluates judicial candidates according to their professional ability, character, independence, integrity, reputation for fairness and temperament.
