Elect Aimee Cobb Smith

Hello.  I am Aimee Cobb Smith and I am running for the Alabama Court of Criminal Appeals, place 2.  I am the most qualified candidate running for this position.  I have ten years of combined experience as a prosecutor, criminal defense attorney and criminal appellate attorney.  As a former prosecutor, I understand the concerns of victims for just punishment and to bring finality to the appellate process.  As a criminal defense attorney, I understand the need for due process and equal treatment under the law.  As a criminal appellate attorney, I understand the appeal process, the different issues presented for consideration, and the need to evaluate each case with judicial thoughtfulness and fairness.  I am fair, open-minded, and committed to upholding the law.  I have the formal training and experience to review the cases and the laws that apply to each case.  These qualities are necessary to give an informed and authoritative opinion.  I possess the necessary experience, maturity, and perspective to sit as a Judge on the Court of Criminal Appeals.  I hope you will use my website to see that I am the most qualified candidate.  I ask for your support when you vote November 4th.
