I have heard<br \/>\nhundreds of appeals from all trial courts in Hamilton County\u2013 Common<br \/>\nPleas, Probate, Juvenile, Domestic Relations &amp; Municipal.<br \/>\nThe topics have included death penalty, felony, misdemeanor, zoning,<br \/>\ncollective bargaining, constitutional questions, leases, foreclosures,<br \/>\ncontracts, arbitration, sexual predator registration, parental rights,<br \/>\njuvenile delinquency, adoption, administrative law, and many others. I<br \/>\nam also honored to have been selected by the Chief Justice to sit on the<br \/>\nSupreme Court of Ohio as a visiting judge in place of a recused justice<br \/>\non a case set for April 24, 2018.<\/p>\n<p><strong>(2) What about your non-judicial legal experience qualifies you to be a<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>judge?<\/strong><br \/>\nPrior to assuming the bench, I was an AV Preeminent rated trial<br \/>\nattorney at KMK, a large law \u00d7rm based in Cincinnati. I handled trials in<br \/>\ncourts across the country, involving parties and transactions from<br \/>\naround the world. Important to my current job as an appeals court<br \/>\njudge, I handled numerous appeals in various Courts of Appeals in Ohio,<br \/>\nthe U.S. Sixth Circuit, and the Ohio Supreme Court. The cases I handled<br \/>\nincluded landlord\/tenant issues, torts, contract disputes, zoning,<br \/>\nelection law, criminal, class action defense, shareholder suits, labor and<br \/>\nemployment, customs, international trade, intellectual property, and<br \/>\nmany others.<br \/>\nI also served on the Hamilton County Public Defender Commission.<br \/>\nThis broad range of experience well prepared me for the broad range of<br \/>\ncases we see. Early in my career, I served as a law clerk for Justice<br \/>\nO\u2019Connor at the Supreme Court of Ohio, where I was exposed to the<br \/>\nhighest level of appellate legal practice in the State of Ohio. Assisting<br \/>\nwith the review of those cases and crafting the written decisions,<br \/>\ntaught me the skills and attributes necessary to be a good appellant<br \/>\njudge.<\/p>\n<p><strong>(3) Why are you running for this particular court seat?<\/strong><br \/>\nI am passionate about my work. During oral arguments, I engage with<br \/>\ncounsel to make sure the legal issues are framed in the clearest way<br \/>\npossible. In my written decisions, I strive to fully articulate and address<br \/>\nthe strengths of each party\u2019s case\u2013particularly that of the losing party. I<br \/>\ndo this so the parties understand that their arguments have been heard<br \/>\nand to help the lower courts best understand exactly what our court<br \/>\nsays the law is on a given topic<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Office: Hamilton County \u2013 First District Court of Appeals Age: 42 Residence: Cincinnati, OH Email: chipmiller76@gmail.com Website: http:\/\/www.judgecharlesmiller.com; https:\/\/www.facebook.c om\/Miller4Judge\/ Occupation: Court of Appeals Judge (incumbent) Education: J.D., Boston University; B.A., The Ohio State University Work Experience: First District Court of Appeals \u2014 Judge; Keating Muething &amp; Klekamp \u2014 Partner; Supreme Court of Ohio \u2014 [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3619,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":"","_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"class_list":["post-39795","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.uakron.edu\/judicialvotescount\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/39795","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.uakron.edu\/judicialvotescount\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.uakron.edu\/judicialvotescount\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.uakron.edu\/judicialvotescount\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3619"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.uakron.edu\/judicialvotescount\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=39795"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.uakron.edu\/judicialvotescount\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/39795\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":39803,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.uakron.edu\/judicialvotescount\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/39795\/revisions\/39803"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.uakron.edu\/judicialvotescount\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=39795"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
