The  reason you do not see a great number of Emeritus Judges is because a 
judge  must earn this status.  He or she should not be given the status just  
because they are a good person in the region.  They should be given this  
status because they have gone far and above what is expected of them as a  
judge.

That is not what i said. What I am saying is holding an office at  the 
national level is not a requirement for Emeritus Judge. One can perform  service 
in many different ways. But an emeritus judge is expected to have done  
something more than just the regular duties that a good judge performs. Said  
judge should have had positive effects on the society over and above just  
being a judge.

Robert you have just  confused me!

So you are saying that a "judge" who also holds an office  should be
considered for Emeritus?????  What does holding an office  have to do
with judging?

I do agree if a one judges an affiliate  show that is on the national
level because the show is AIS  approved.
