Applicants sought for ethics commission
The Judicial Council is accepting applications to fill an upcoming vacancy on the Hawaii State Ethics Commission created by the expiration of the term of Commissioner Susan DeGuzman on June 30.

The five commission members are responsible for investigating complaints, providing advisory opinions, and enforcing decisions issued by the commission.
Interested persons should submit an application, a resume, and three letters of recommendation attesting to the applicant’s character and integrity postmarked by Friday to: Judicial Council, Hawaii Supreme Court, 417 S. King St., Second Floor, Honolulu, HI 96813-2902
