Baltimore City Circuit Court Judicial Appointment

It was announced today that Governor O'Malley has appointed a new judge to the Circuit Court for Baltimore City. Marcus Z. Shar, a Baltimore City medical malpractice lawyer, will be the newest member of that court. I think this is a great appointment. I have met Judge Shar a few times through professional associations and his involvement with the University of Baltimore School of Law's trial advocacy program.

He strikes me as a very intelligent, open-minded person who has the right demeanor for a trial court judge. I think this is a good choice all around.
