Justice, challenger cite panel fairness

The Clarion-Ledger, 9/23/8

State Supreme Court Justice Oliver Diaz Jr. and his challenger said Monday the state high court suffers from a perception of not being fair to all citizens.

Diaz and Chancery Judge Bubba Pierce of Leakesville face off in the Nov. 4 general election for a seat on the nine-member Mississippi Supreme Court.

“We have to make sure the system is fair,” said Pierce, a former state lawmaker.

Pierce said there is a feeling among the public that the average citizen isn’t represented on the court.
