15th Circuit Judge Bromell Holmes stood before the panel of the Judicial Merit Selection Commission yesterday in hopes of getting an appointment to S.C. Seat 9 of the Court of Appeals.

It was a very bad day for Holmes as her critics spoke out against the judge.

Among Horry and Georgetown County attorneys, 19 filed ballot box complaints against Holmes. This number is unprecedented state-wide.

Columbia, S.C. based Attorney Tucker Player pointed out the judge’s lack of judgement as it related to putting confidential files of an LLR complaint in the public record. The complaint was supposed to be anonymous. Readers can hear Player’s back and forth with the JMSC in the top video above.

JMSC member Ronnie Sabb implored as to why Gallman’s defense attorney did not object when Judge Holmes made the private documents public. Gallman set the record straight, informing the JMSC that Holmes ran a 15 minute hearing where the defense council was not allowed to speak.

Private records, made public by Holmes were later leveraged by JMSC member Senator Luke Ranking in a vicious campaign attack against Gallman.
