In Re Disciplinary Proceeding Against Honorable James C. Kaiser

We hold that campaign statements made by District Judge James C. Kaiser violate Canons 1, 2(A) and 7 of the Code of Judicial Conduct. Those Canons require a judge to uphold the integrity of the judiciary, prohibit  statements of party affiliation and prohibit pledges or promises of politically favored treatment. We censure Judge Kaiser.
