Congratulations to Mr. Bokor who was appointed earlier tonight to the open seat on the County Court created by the resignation of Judge Jacqueline Schwartz.

He began his legal career with Jones Day in 2002 and worked for Kozyak Tropin from 2006-2008. You can read Judge Bokor's entire bio by going here.

ReplyDeleteBokor, another lightweight with no private practice or life experience.
ReplyDeleteIs there any relationship between the Spicola Bokor who has been appointed county court judge and the Spicola who is the governor's relatively new general counsel?
ReplyDeleteRump - you hardly post enough lately, plus there are very few responses? I love the blog and want more content and discussion.
ReplyDeleteWolfson! Wolfson! Wolfson!
ReplyDeleteAlex Bokor is a sharp guy. Smart as hell and a gentleman. The Governor got it right on this one.
ReplyDelete422 your right working for the county attorneys office is nothing. it would be better if he was a defense attorney who split his fees with bondsmen so he could really understand what your pathetic practice consists of.
ReplyDeleteBokor is right guy for the job
wolfson or simon are the picks here
ReplyDeleteThis is sad. Governor Scott once again disappoints and misses the opportunity to diversify the Court. Not to discredit Bokor, but really when will Governor Scott listen to the multitude of articles that call for diversity appointments. I am sure all the candidates were more than qualified yet another white male gets the appointment. Sad.
