Are "Eye-Popping" Partisan Contributions By Sitting Judges A Problem? Bridge Magazine raises the question in a story that says Court of Appeals judge Henry Saad has contributed $80,800 -- more than half of his $151,441-annual salary -- to Republican candidates and causes. The story, which includes praise for Saad from former Justice Maura Corrigan, notes that the contributions, while earning Saad a spot in a national list of top donors, do not violate any laws or ethical rules. But UDM Law professor Larry Dubin, former chair of the Michigan Attorney Grievance Commission, told Bridge Magazine: Judges aren’t supposed to be political animals and yet the right to contribute large sums to political parties or candidates seems to be in conflict with the duty to be impartial and not create the appearance of impropriety. Maybe it’s time for Michigan to consider putting a cap on the amount that a judge may contribute to political candidates as other states have done to prevent what otherwise might appear to be an appearance of impropriety.
