Validity of second interim appointment[edit]

This article is written with a bias in favor of the views of the Republican leadership of the General Assembly. There are conflicting viewpoints on whether Justice Roush's second pro temporare appointment was unconstitutional.^[1]

I created the article and I don't understand how the author of the unsigned comment above could perceive it to reflect a partisan bias in the manner described. The article (which has not been substantially updated since the General Assembly returned for its 2016 regular session) specifically notes that "Because there is legal uncertainty about whether the legislature is still in session, it is unclear whether the governor may fill the vacancy created when Justice Roush's original interim appointment expired on September 16, 2015. Nevertheless, the governor announced his view that the legislature was not in session and purported to reappoint her for a second interim term. Whether this second interim appointment is valid or invalid has not been determined." Each of those statements is objectively correct and non-partisan. The view of the Republican leadership of the General Assembly is not that "there is legal uncertainty about whether the legislature is still in session" or that "it is unclear whether the governor may fill the vacancy when Justice Roush's original interim appointment expired"; to the contrary, the view of the Republican leadership was that the legislature *was* still in session and that the governor could not fill the vacancy after the first interim appointment expired.
