Former bar presidents support Servaas
Bar Associations
Judge Steven Servaas, under pressure to resign his seat on the District Court bench, is getting support from fellow lawyers.
A letter signed by 12 former Grand Rapids Bar Association presidents supports Servaas in his fight with the Michigan Judicial Tenure Commission.
In the letter, the former bar presidents say, "Regardless of the reason that the judicial tenure commission has undertaken to attack Judge Servaas, it has seemingly done so in a reckless manner."
The lawyers ask the commission to reconsider the issue.
He's also moved back into a house he owns within his district, a key element in the commission's attempt to oust him. Servaas owns two homes, both in the 63rd District, but only one is in his division of the district.
