Calling all bankruptcy judge candidates

Want to throw your hat in the ring for the U.S. Bankruptcy Court Judge seat that bench veteran George Paine will vacate at the end of this year? You'll have to check in with the Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals. An interesting note: The salary for the position will be $160,080, 4 percent more than what Paine — who cited stagnant pay as his main reason for retiring — is making.
