Ethics charge against former Judge Askew dismissed on the merits

Via VLW, the Richmond paper reports here ("Complaint against judge dismissed," 6/22/04) that the ethics charge against former Circuit Court Judge Verbena Askew has been dismissed, for lack of clear and convincing evidence of misconduct. The charge was brought by Senator Stolle in connection with the sufficiency of Judge Askew's disclosures to committees of the General Assembly.
