Subject: Remaining Members of Judicial Committee Fill Vacancies

Dear Alicia Mattson,

Please post this message online on the LNC Business list:

The Judicial Committee is supposed to have seven members. Only three
received a majority in the approval voting process at the 2016
national convention.

The three members of the Judicial Committee elected by the delegates,
Alicia Dearn, Gary Johnson of Texas, and Chuck Moulton, have
communicated by email.

We have ruled unanimously that, as the "remaining members" of the
committee, we have the authority to fill vacancies, although we are
less than the quorum of five specified in the bylaws.

We have decided informally to reject, by 1 to 2, the idea of filling
the vacancies with the next four vote getters.

We have decided unanimously to fill the vacancies with four
individuals who were not nominated at the convention and therefore
were not "disapproved" of by a majority of the delegates in the
approval voting process.

We have voted unanimously by email ballot to fill the vacancies with
Michael Badnarik, John Buttrick, Bill Hall, and Rob Latham.

Alicia Dearn
Gary Johnson
Chuck Moulton
