Apply to Serve on Judicial Evaluation Committee

March 20, 2026

The D.C. Bar Board of Governors is seeking candidates for appointment this spring to the Judicial Evaluation Committee. This committee conducts annual confidential evaluations of selected judges on the D.C. Court of Appeals and the Superior Court of the District of Columbia through an online survey. The committee’s purpose is to create a fair, secure, and anonymous tool for D.C. Bar members to evaluate D.C. Courts judges and to provide that feedback to the chief judges of the D.C. Courts and the D.C. Commission on Judicial Disabilities and Tenure. 

To apply for a board or committee opening, please submit a résumé and a cover letter with a description of relevant work or volunteer experience. Leadership experience with D.C. Bar committees, voluntary bar associations, or the Bar’s Communities is highly desirable. Submit materials via email to Crystal White, board and committee liaison, at [email protected] by April 15.
