To the Editor:

The Advisory Committee on Judicial Conduct has filed ethics complaints against two judges because they attended dinner meetings of an organization, which were also attended by the judges’ longtime friend who had been indicted on official misconduct and other charges. The ACJC alleges the judges’ attendance at the dinners had the potential to weaken public confidence in the integrity and impartiality of the judiciary.
