Gov. Jack Markell has appointed former Delaware Court of Chancery Chancellor William B. Chandler III to lead the Judicial Nominating Commission, an 11-member task force responsible for recommending candidates to fill judicial vacancies. Chandler’s first order of business on the JNC will be to identify candidates for the Chancery Court chancellor opening created by current Chancellor Leo E. Strine Jr.’s promotion to Supreme Court chief justice.
“Chancellor Chandler brings a wealth of experience and insight to his new role,” said Markell’s chief legal counsel, Andrew Lippstone. “The governor is pleased that the former chancellor has agreed to lead the commission and believes he is uniquely qualified to do so.”
