Otras notas

Resigning judge occupied office until time of resignation.
Because the resigning justice continued to occupy the office, the trial court erred in concluding that the justice’s office was vacant and, accordingly, the Governor’s appointment power had not yet arisen and the trial court properly denied the petitions for a writ of mandamus requiring the Secretary of State to conduct that legally nugatory election.
