| Info | Background and Experience. Following service as a contracting officer in the Air Force, Judge Lukens graduated from law school with honors and was selected to research opinions for Oregon’s Court of Appeals. He then practiced law for 25 years, representing small businesses, and pursued an extensive career in public service, serving as Mayor of Bellevue and as an award-winning regional leader.
In 1999 Governor Locke appointed him to the King County Superior Court, and voters have twice returned him to that position. Judge Lukens has presided over hundreds of trials and served as Chief Judge at the Kent courthouse.
Statement. Washington voters rightly expect rulings that are clear, consistent and alert to consequences. But recent rulings have faltered, including one opinion that forced retrials for more than 30 convicted murderers. It’s time to reevaluate this direction, and assure common sense in the Supreme Court’s deliberations.
Bar associations rate him "Exceptionally Well Qualified" for the job. Prosecuting attorneys in 36 counties stand behind him. Citizens and labor groups and respected officials from around the state and across the political spectrum endorse him, including Congresswoman Jennifer Dunn, Norm Rice, Mayor Jim White, King County Prosecutor Norm Maleng, Ruth Woo, and hundreds more.
