InfoMark Anderson is running for Place 1 on the Alabama Court of Civil Appeals. He is a Republican from Montgomery.

Anderson was Montgomery County Circuit Judge for eight years before becoming the Deputy Attorney General for the State Department of Human Resources. He graduated from the University Alabama School of Law in 1962 and clerked for Alabama Supreme Court Justice James S. Coleman before becoming an Assistant Attorney General in 1963.

He entered private practice in 1966.

Judge Anderson has been married for 39 years. He and his wife Jean have two sons, both lawyers.

He is an elder in his church and a former Clerk of the Session. He has been active in civic affairs throughout his career. He is a member of the Federalist Society and the Christian Legal Society
