Judge Martha Geer
Dear Voter,
Throughout my career, I have brought an enthusiasm and energy to my work, during my years as a business litigator, and now on the North Carolina Court of Appeals. Since my election in 2002, I have participated in deciding more than 2,000 appeals. Of those appeals, I have written the deciding opinion in nearly 700 appeals. To date, the Supreme Court has reversed me only ten times—the result being that my opinions have become the law for the State of North Carolina more than 98% of the time. I am one of only a few judges on the North Carolina Supreme Court and Court of Appeals who is equipped to handle both those appeals addressing complex disputes involving businesses and industries critical to our state's economy, as well as appeals involving issues impacting the lives of individual citizens. I thrive on delving into the details and taking the time to fully understand a case before reaching a quality, impartial decision. I need and will appreciate your vote on November 2, 2010.
—Judge Martha Geer
