What You Need To Know About The Coal Miners Daughter Judge Terri Jamison

The Court’s power to profoundly impact the lives of Ohioans has too often been overlooked or undervalued. I’ve come a long way from the coal mines of West Virginia. After moving to Columbus and operating my own business for 16 years, I decided to pursue my law degree. During my time as a practicing lawyer and then as a Judge in the Franklin County Court of Common Pleas, Domestic Relations Division - Juvenile Branch, I used my experience and background to empower families and increase access to justice. I want to show that our courts serve the public, and don’t answer to any party or those funding election campaigns. I’m running for Ohio Supreme Court to help restore public trust in our legal system. Rulings from the Ohio Supreme Court impact our day-to-day lives. The personal beliefs, philosophies, and principles of the justices determine the outcomes of cases and shape our society. Cases involving workers’ rights impact how we earn our living. Reproductive rights, taxation and the economy, and the school system affect how we seek healthcare, start a small business, or educate our children. I’ve worked hard in my courtroom to ensure that all Ohioans have access to the courts and competent legal counsel. As a Justice on the Ohio Supreme Court, I will keep fighting to remove burdensome costs, and unnecessary delays, and ensure that everyone coming before the court has their fair hearing and opportunity to be heard. The Ohio Supreme Court profoundly impacts how we live our lives every day. I am running for Justice because I take that responsibility seriously. Ohioans deserve a fourth justice who believes strongly in democracy, an independent court, and that justice should be accessible to all.
