Len Walker
Occupation: Attorney
What experience do you have that qualifies you for this position?
"The Navy taught me how to solve problems as an analyst, and that is what I do to this very day. I evaluate cases in a straight forward objective manner without allowing emotions or personal bias to get in the way. All cases have two opinions or views, and if you let bias get involved, its a good way to set yourself up for failure. Facts always dictate results under applicable law, and I have followed that approach in hundreds if not thousands of cases and dozens upon dozens of jury trials with great success."
How will you best represent the community that elected you?
"The people of Potter County can rely upon me to execute the duties as Judge for County Court at Law 1 without hesitation or failure. I will work to immediately identify and eliminate issues causing delay or excess cost, and cases will move forward efficiently. The court will be in good hands, and I will make the people proud of Court 1."
How are you better suited than your opponent to serve in the position that you are running for?
"Most cases before Court 1 are criminal and family with a few general civil matters. Those areas track my law practice and experience over a twenty five year career. In addition to family law and criminal defense, I dedicated seven years of my career as a prosecutor that handled violent crime felonies from aggravated assault up to and including murder cases at trial. Being a Judge requires oversight and management of trials. I simply don't understand how anyone thinks they could properly issue fair rulings and decisions without extensive trial experience in both criminal and family law."
