One of the conditions of the grant is that the University of Virginia have an outside evaluation of the program by a highly qualified reviewer The evaluation process requires he reviewer to travel to Charlottesville during each summer for a period of two or three days each The evaluator monitors classes, interviews judges concerning the quality of their experience, gathers pertinent information from program administrators, and prepares an interim report following the first summer and a final report following the second summer. The evaluations are.an important part of the ext grent applicaticn cycle. The Graduate Program would reimburse you for all expenses incurred in traveling to Charlottesville and preparing the reports In addition, evaluators are paid a modest stipend The Committee concludes that your service as an evaluator is permissible under the Code of Conduct for United States Judges. Canon 4 provides that “[a] judge may engage in extra-judicial activities o improve the law, the legal system, and the administration of justice. Specifically, Canon 4A provides that *[a] judge may speak, write, lecture, teach, and participate in other activities concerning the law, the legal system, and the administration of justice. Clearly, your service as an evaluator of a graduate program for judges at the University of There is also Virginia qualifies as such a permissible activity nothing inappropriate about the fact that your assessment will be used by the state to evaluate the program and to make future . grant decisions In fact, Canon 4C expressly notes that ™“[a] judge may make recommendations to public and private fund- granting agencies on projects and programs concerning the law, the legal system, and the administration of justice.” The Committee also concludes that you may accept the modest stipend, not because the activity is related to teaching, but because the payment does not constitute an honorarium as defined by the Code Section 4(a) of the Ethics Reform Act of 1989 provides that “[n]o judicial officer or employee shall receive any honorarium while that individual is a judicial officer or employee.” Section 4 (b) defines honorarium to mean “a payment of travel money or anything of value (excluding or reduced by expenses as provided in 5 U.S.C. App. §§ 505(3) and (4)) for an speech or article by a judicial officer appearance, or employee.” --- Source: Frix Law Library, https://www.frixlaw.com/law-library/disclosures/25744. Public record.
