The most important part of my job is ensuring that everyone who has a right to be heard in a case gets their voice heard and are treated with fairness and respect. #AskGaJudges

Yes, I remember my first voting experience. It was the 1988 presidential election. Voting was taken very seriously in my home. My parents would not even tell me who they were voting for, because in those days your vote was considered a very private decision. #AskGAJudges

Q4 - 2021 marks the 50th anniversary of the 26th Amendment which was ratified on July 1, 1971, and which guarantees the right to vote to all citizens 18 years of age or older, do you remember the first time you ever voted in an election?

Most judges in Georgia are elected. I am a Juvenile Court Judge, and we are the only judges in Georgia that do not run for election. Juvenile Court Judges are appointed by #AskGAJudges

It's always difficult making decisions that have a direct impact on people's lives, but it's also very rewarding when you can make that impact positive. Having a front row seat to watch great attorneys perform their craft has always been fun to me. #AskGAJudges

You are not alone Judge Gobeil, but I've listened to it so many times and heard my daughters talk about it so much that I feel like I've seen it several times. I also join you in your admiration of Hamilton's contributions to our constitution. #AskGAJudges

@GACourts I may be the only one who hasn’t seen it (yet) 😳, but I have long admired Hamilton’s contributions to the Constitutional Convention! 🙌 #AskGAJudges
