now is running inthe May 15 primary to permanently fill Pomeroy vacancy Zemprelli said he believed Thornburgh should not have picked him for the interim Post if confirmed by the Senate Kauffman would be too Busy campaigning to help reduce the courts huge Case backlog Zemprelli charged if the governor is serious about the backlog let him appoint a retired judge or somebody who going to have time to address the backlog Zemprelli said Hager claimed that the Democrat were stalling on Kauffman nomination because they did not want him to have an advantage of being an interim member of the court
