The Eleventh Circuit Judicial Nominating Commission selected 10 applicants to interview and potentially fill the vacancy on the Miami-Dade County Court resulting from the resignation of Judge Elijah Levitt on Sept. 30.

Miranda L. Soto, a member on the commission and a shareholder at Buchanan Ingersoll & Rooney in Miami, said each applicant brings a different perspective on the law and appears to seek a long-term career on the bench.
