The Court asked the Judicial Ethics Advisory Committee to study the limits on judges' participation in fund-raising activities and to recommend changes to the Code of Judicial Conduct if needed. The Judicial Ethics Advisory Committee, which is made up of judges and lawyers from around the state, concluded that the current rules forestall questions about the impartiality and independence of the judiciary and, therefore, should be maintained with only minor clarifications. Some judges, however, recommend that this Court make it easier for judges to participate in community events and to support activities concerning the law and the courts.
