Council congratulates Wiseman
The Saipan and Northern Islands Municipal Council bestowed to newly-appointed Superior Court Associate Judge David Wiseman, its legal counsel of many years, a commemorative resolution recognizing and congratulating achievements.
“The Council is very proud of Legal Counsel David A. Wiseman’s nomination and confirmation,” resolution 6SMC-5RS-19 read.
Mr. Wiseman was nominated as Associate Judge of the Superior Court by Governor Pedro P. Tenorio last January 5, 2001. He was called on by the governor to replace former judge John A. Manglona, who was confirmed as Supreme Court associate justice in June 2000.
Mr. Wiseman was confirmed by the Senate on March 8 at a session held on Tinian.
However, the months that separate his nomination and confirmation as Associate Judge of the Superior Court were tumultuous times for Mr. Wiseman, his family as well as his close friends.
Aside from being the legal counsel of the Saipan and Northern Islands Municipal Council, the new Associate Judge of the Superior Court also was Special Judge to the CNMI. Prior to his confirmation Mr. Wiseman also run a very successful private practice.
The Municipal Council Commemorative Resolution was adopted last March 16 and was signed by its Chairman Gregorio V. Deleon Guerrero and Council Secretary Jesus Sn. Lizama. (Mark Rabago)
