Superior Court Judge, Pos. 17: Moriarty committed to justice, integrity

I endorse incumbent judge candidate, Patrick Moriarty for Snohomish County

Superior Court, Position 17. Having had the privilege of working at his prior law firm for over seven years, I have witnessed his unwavering commitment to justice, fairness and integrity. It is with great confidence that I recommend Judge Moriarty for re-election.

One of the most significant factors that contribute to Judge Moriarty’s suitability for this role is his extensive experience as a judicial officer. His tenure on the bench has equipped him with the knowledge and insight necessary to make well-informed decisions. When it comes to understanding the complexities of the law and the impact of decisions on the lives of individuals in Snohomish county, Judge Moriarty’s experience sets him apart.

Judge Moriarty has served as a decision maker for years including as a district court pro tem judge, arbitrator, and as commissioner prior to becoming a judge. This experience is extremely valuable and needed because there has been a wave of new judges. I can attest to fact that the court needs the wisdom and efficiency of experienced judges.

The years of experience that Judge Moriarty brings to the bench is irreplaceable.

I wholeheartedly endorse Patrick Moriarty for Snohomish County Superior Court. His experience, dedication to public service, and unwavering integrity make him the right choice for reelection. I encourage the voters of Snohomish County to join me in supporting Judge Moriarty and his campaign for a fair and just legal system.
