Sloan Applies For Circuit Judge Job


Jim Sloan Applies To Be One Of Two New Circuit Judges

LABELLE, FL. -- Hendry County Judge James D. Sloan has applied to switch judge jobs, applying for one of two judicial openings in the 20th Judicial Circuit which includes Lee, Hendry and Charlotte county.

Sloan, now Hendry county's county judge, is one of 41 applicants for the position, left open by the death of one circuit Judge and the retirement of another. A nine-member commission will interview the applicants and then the nominees will go to Governor Crist for his choice, making the two new Judges  political appointees until their term expires, and then an election.

Most likely one of the two appointees will work in the Hendry and Glades county circuit court. The job pays $139.497 a year, or about $70 an hour, assuming a 40 hour work week.
