of Appeals judges been downgraded.

JUDGE CARTER: In this extreme case that is
|
|
3
|
pointed out where the chief justice has power to assign
|
|
4
|
a People's Court judge to sit on the Supreme Court of
|
|
5
|
the State, what is the advantage of having that authority
|
|
6
|
written in the Constitution?
|
|
7
|
MR. MARTIHEAU: The same advantage as in the
|
|
8
|
present one where you permit a Circuit Court judge to be
|
|
9
|
assigned to sit on the Court of Appeals. Sometimes you
|
|
10
|
need a judge.
|
|
11
|
JUDGE CARTER: As now set up, that is one-tier
|
|
12
|
difference. Here you have got three-tier difference.
|
|
13
|
MR. MARTINEAU: It depends on the quality of
|
|
14
|
the particular judge, it seems to me.
|
|
15
|
THE CHAIRMAN: Is it your thought, Judge Carter
|
|
16
|
that it ought to be restricted to a particular level?
|
|
17
|
JUDGE CARTER: I would think so. I don't see
|
|
18
|
any advantage in that.
|
|
19
|
MR. ENEY: Do you mean that, or do you mean
|
|
20
|
just that people's Court judge is in a different category?
|
|
21
|
In other words, would you prevent a Circuit Court judge
